VisDeck
VisDeck is a physical deck of cards that works as a playful design tool for Information Visualization. Most untrained people build visualizations by matching chart types to data. In VisDeck, each card is one decision in the design process: the question you're asking, the kind of data you have, the mark that will represent it, the channel that will encode a value. A port-matching system ensures only correct choices!
