“…This work is part of a larger set of projects [6,7] that aim to develop an information unitbased data storytelling framework, which is bridging theories and methods from multiple disciplines-data visualisation, communication, storytelling, and interactive media. In this article, we presented an approach to creating a visual data storytelling application on interactive digital platforms for general audiences.…”

“…The basic idea of our approach is illustrated in Figure 1. To explore the new potential of visual data storytelling from conceptual and technical aspects, two pilot studies were conducted [6,7]. On top of those pilot studies, the next phase of the experiments is outlined in this article and aimed to put forward a modular framework.…”

While the consumption of visual information becomes a daily commodity integrated into our lives, data visualisation is dominated by dashboards and charts. The main contribution of this article is an advanced way to visualise data as a data story. We converged paradigms from digital storytelling, serious games, and data visualisation to turn data into useful insights. The creation, management, and analysis of data have been increasingly given more attention in industry and professional practices. However, the potential of packaging data and analytic results into easily digestible and visually explorable content intended for non-professional audiences has not yet been investigated to its full extent. We contributed towards overcoming the gap between data analytics and data presentation. By integrating a story-like environment and entertainment into data visualisation, we explore the possibilities of efficiently communicating data and insights to general audiences in a casual context. We present this modular approach to customising messages for visual data storytelling from an information and communication perspective, including a test prototype developed to illustrate our data storytelling framework.

“…Data storytelling principles have been applied successfully in different domains. For instance, Thöny et al [35] describe how the application of data storytelling principles to geographic visualization systems can help to better guide the audience and expand the accessibility of the information in these systems to a more general audience [22,39]. In the field of journalism, data storytelling principles have also been applied successfully [27] as well as analyzed systemically in order to determine what makes an award-winning data story [24].…”

The Influence of Data Storytelling on the Ability to Recall Information

With ever-increasing amounts of complex data, we need compelling ways to distill this information into meaningful, memorable and engaging insights. Data storytelling is an emerging visualization paradigm that aims to "tell a story" with data in order to elicit deeper reflections in an effective manner. However, the effects of adding a narrative to a visualization on the memorability of the information remain speculative. Based on a review of related work, we synthesize a framework of data storytelling principles with concrete actions for every principle. We use this framework to design an online, controlled experiment to test compare traditional data visualizations with data storytelling visualizations in terms of their effects on short-term and long-term recall of information displayed in the visualizations. In general, despite long-held assumptions in the visualization community, we find no significant differences in recall between traditional visualizations and data storytelling visualization. However, we find indications that the cognitive load induced by different chart types and self-assessed prior knowledge on the chart topics could possibly have a moderating effect on information recall.
