Excellent Janet - Thanks so much.

My students didn't want to go to recess - it was so much fun and a perfect
way to introduce the topic.

Thanks again, Litsa.

Another great resource which could be used as a lesson starter on the topic
of data visualisation is at

 

http://spotlight.abs.gov.au/

 

it is an interactive quiz where kids put in their details (where they live,
when they were born etc)  to get a snapshot of just how important they are
in the overall scheme of things!

 

regards

Litsa,

 

I use Google Docs and add in things like motion charts. "Many eyes" is a
website that allows you to upload data and create different types of data
visualisations. Failing those, you could use wordle!

 

If I am on the wrong track however, someone please correct me!

 

Cheers

 

Trav

Good afternoon,

 

May I ask please?

 

For Unit 2 - Outcome 1, what would classify as a "data visualisation
software". I have included the statement from the study design below.

In the textbook there are many charts, but I was trying to avoid using
Spreadsheets.

 

"Area of Study 1: One or more of the following: A programming language,
database software, spreadsheet software, data visualisation software"

 

Thank-you for any clarification.

Litsa J
