Here's what was received.

Refine Activity Worksheet v6a

In this stage of the data visualization process, graphic design methods are used to further clarify
the representation by calling more attention to particular data or by changing attributes that
contribute to readability. As you refine your visualization(s), Keep in mind:

Data visualization should be audience-specific with a clear requirement.

Choose the right data visualization for your data.
Keep your visualizations simple.
Label your data visualizations.
Understand the importance of text in charts.
Use colors effectively in data visualizations.
Avoid deceiving with your visualizations.
