1) in Part 2, you are asked to redesign "two parts" from the visualization in Part 1. the term
part is given in Part 1 as: "Take a look at the visualization above, which has three distinct parts (migration, major metros, and urban sprawl), and write a visualization critique. "

2) you do not actually
need the class survey data for the exam, just an understanding of the questions and data options.
