<p>I would like to do some database stuff, but I am not sure how the visualisation aspect fits in - are we talking about a switchboard that will display something (eg. a report/or maybe a chart made in Excel) when a button is clicked?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It seems to me that some aspect of database should be examined in Year 11, otherwise students could go on to Year 12 ITA with no knowledge at all about databases (which would be a disadvantage, I think)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have looked up the study design and it says that databases are permissible, but can someone advise me on how they could be incorporated into the first outcome?
</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Otherwise, I will just use many eyes: <a href="http://www-958.ibm.com/software/data/cognos/manyeyes/">

<div>Just FYI. Here are some of the things you can do with gadgets and lookups. I saw some of these demonstrated at GTASYD in Sydney last April. Impressive stuff.

That's a good idea. FYI the study design says you can use database<br>
software, so that's why I was thinking it. However, you can definitely<br>
introduce VB.net and use an image browser, even include scaling, zooming<br>
etc for it as an intro to U2O2.<br>
<br>
Definitely like the idea of Google docs spreadsheets too after looking<br>
at them! Thanks YouTube!<br>

<br>
Colleagues,<br>
<br>
I'm just running through the software tools options for U2O1 (Yes, I do<br>
have a whole day and a half to get it organised!) and was wondering what<br>
people use for data visualisations? I was looking at using a database,<br>
as it is one of the options. Although seemingly not the best for data<br>
visualisation, databases are a concept that continues throughout IT<br>
Apps, so anything that gives the students an edge would be good. This<br>
could probably be used in conjunction with another tool if necessary.<br>
<br>
What are you guys using?<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
<br>
Trav<br>
