Triangulation of research data was one of the methods I found interesting and useful. validating what people and the numbers are saying helps you get a better perspective on the topic and helps you form new connections with in the data you have. this also helps clients and the audience accept the data as valid. I thought it was interesting that even at the higher levels everything boils down to presentation. even though Kim had so many degrees people were still unwilling to trust her processes or her information until it was presented in a highly aesthetic way. this presentation also helped me gain a better understanding of how to present the important information concisely. excited to have this extra back round for the next round of the project.
