SUMMARY:York University Libraries Data Storytelling Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Put your data visualization & creativity skills to the test and enter the very first York University Libraries Data Storytelling Challenge! \nThe Data Storytelling Challenge for undergraduate and graduate students is your opportunity to showcase and grow your data visualization skills. Choose your medium—digital or physical — the possibilities are as limitless as your creativity!  \nParticipants can explore the use of digital tools like Power BI, Tableau, Python or R. Alternatively, students can bring a data visualization to life using the Markham Campus Library’s Makerspace equipment, such as 3D printers, laser cutters, sewing machines, or even pen and paper.  \nChallenge Benefits \n\nApply and strengthen your data visualization and creativity skills! \nPrizes for first ($250 worth), second ($175) and third ($125) place challenge winners. \nWinners also get bragging rights that you won a campus-wide challenge (a great line for your resume)!  \nThe challenge will feature a curated and juried exhibition of top works.  \nThis exhibition will be hosted at the Markham Campus in March 2026. This optional exhibition provides students with an opportunity to engage with the wider York University community and showcase their work in a dedicated professional-grade gallery space. \n\nHow to participate? \n\nGo to the Libraries’ webpage to learn more. \nSign-up for the Challenge’s virtual Kickoff Workshop (Nov. 11, 12pm-1pm). \nSubmit an expression of interest by Jan. 19, 2026 using our MS Form. \n\nQuestions? \n\nContact datalib@yorku.ca if you have any questions about participating in the challenge. \n\n
