Summary
In this chapter, you have learned why it is important, as a data-literate individual, to critically evaluate everything, ranging from the data all the way to the insight and the decision. You can accomplish this by asking questions. Better questions will lead you to better insights and, ultimately, better decisions.
This process requires you to think critically and not accept any of the information at face value. This is important so that you can develop skills to properly examine and inspect data critically to benefit your organization. You learned how to question various components of the data, such as its trustworthiness, its lineage, and its relevance. You also learned how to question and critically evaluate both the words and visualizations shared with you.
Now that you have done this, you can now move on to the next step in the process, which is to choose the right visualizations for your data. This is discussed in the next chapter.
