IEP comparison of Lowest Per Capita States


Today we worked on creating a bar graph from Kidz Zone. My bar chart is shown above using data from NAEP State Profiles.
This Kidz Zone page is an awesome way to get creative with data that students may have to cipher through while doing some tasks in their classes which under normal circumstances would be quite mundane. I think using this tool will help to encourage students to worry less about the arbitrary data gathering techniques and instead relate to the material via visual representations.
We also worked on using a Venn diagram to demonstrate some graphical data. The Venn diagram I used is from Crappy Graphics. You can view my Venn Diagram here.
