[ddj] [Q] Difference between CAR and DJ

Sun May 19 14:12:34 UTC 2013

Hi guys,

Let me introduce myself first, I am from Taiwan, and working for a NPO : 
Youth Synergy Taiwan Foundation. Also I am running the website : 
http://www.opendata.tw/
There has been almost 3 years that we are advocating Open data in Taiwan 
with different activities such as our lastest Open Campus camp 
<http://www.opendata.tw/open-campus-2013/> at 50.25/26, a two days 
workshop on Data journalisim (sorry link only in Taiwanese Chinese).

In the preparation to our camp/workshop, I find a few questions on data 
journalism that I hope someone here would be kind to give me an answer.

What is the main difference between Computer assisted reporting and 
data-driven journalism?
 From Wikipedia we can see now there is "data journalism" and 
"data-driven journalism", can I say that the difference is in that data 
journalism is a data-driven journalism + data visualization?

So the correct definition for the data journalism, if we have to choose 
one, might be using data as source to news, but also using data to tell 
a story?

tks

regards,

whisky
