Data Collection
Data collection is the process of gathering information from various sources to gain insights,
make decisions, or solve problems. It can involve different methods such as surveys, interviews,
observations, and experiments. The data collected can be either primary, gathered firsthand by
the researcher, or secondary, obtained from existing sources like books, websites, or reports.
Accurate and reliable data collection is essential as it forms the foundation for analysis and
interpretation in any field of study or research.
Data Visualisation
Data visualisation is the process of presenting data in a graphical or pictorial format to make
it easier to understand and interpret. Instead of looking at long lists of numbers, data can
be shown using bar graphs, pie charts, line graphs, histograms, and other visual tools. These
visuals help in identifying patterns, trends, and comparisons quickly. Data visualisation makes
complex information more accessible and is widely used in fields like business, science, and
education to support decision-making.
