Dealing with Data

Today was full of information on how to present data in different ways. We started with the importance of creating and how this can be done in a variety of ways. I did like this quote "creative skills helps students become better problem solvers, communicators and collaborators". It mentions how the whole body can be used when thinking about creating, this is definitely something I need to keep in mind when planning.

Google Forms- I have only used this twice I think with the children, however, I have filled out many forms and can see why people use this tool. I see how easy it is to use and I am thinking I can get the children using this. It can be used for a variety of ways and the pick a path story idea intrigues me.
Google Sheets- I admit I really only use this for planning and have not really used it too much for analysing data. I have learned quite a few tricks for this and how you can convert the information into charts. I have also below embedded a google chart in the blog and I got this information from someone's blog. This is just one way it can be used but gathering the information and being able to display this into a chart is cool.
Google Maps- I was really interested in how this can be used as have never tried this. Below is something we worked on using the information used from a google sheet which was pretty amazing. One of the teachers plans to use this to map where certain animals are which is perfect as we are looking at native animals so this got me thinking about including it in my planning.

It was interesting today to see how you can use google sheets,google forms and google maps all in together.
