Data Storytelling -- Clarifying What It Is, What It's Not + How To Do It | Into the Driver's Seat | Scoop.it

"First, data visualization is not data storytelling. On that we agree. Data visualization, whether simple or complex, helps us make sense of data, but rarely generates insights that stimulate action."

7 Data Visualization Tools You Can Use In The Classroom

7 Data Visualization Tools You Can Use In The Classroom | Into the Driver's Seat | Scoop.it

No matter what happens, there will always be a demand for data visualization tools. Data on its own can be pretty boring and brightening it up with images and other visual tools, it can make normally inaccessible information much easier to digest. (Editor’s Note: It’s also great for information reading literacy, and the new Common Core demand for multimedia “texts.”)

 

There are a number of fantastic tools out there that will present your data in an accessible manner. All of the tools listed below are free and chances are you’ve used one or two of the tools mentioned before.
