No expertise required. Students (and teachers) do not need any previous understanding of the specific types of data displayed in this Collection. Each Lesson embraces uncertainty and discussion.
First, discuss data as a class. Students discuss the data they see as it is slowly revealed. As more data is added, students build upon their previous understanding. Each discussion takes about 10 to 15 minutes.
Then, students create data. After the class discussion, students complete activities to collect, create, and make sense of their own data visuals.
