  The integration of data visualization in journalism has catalyzed the growth
of data storytelling in recent years. Today, it is increasingly common for
journalism schools to incorporate data visualization into their curricula.
However, the approach to teaching data visualization in journalism schools can
diverge significantly from that in computer science or design schools,
influenced by the varied backgrounds of students and the distinct value systems
inherent to these disciplines. This paper reviews my experience and reflections
on teaching data visualization in a journalism school. First, I discuss the
prominent characteristics of journalism education that pose challenges for
course design and teaching. Then, I share firsthand teaching experiences
related to each characteristic and recommend approaches for effective teaching.
