Knowledge, Learning, Community

This article introduces teachers to Discovery's new resources about learning with data. It's pretty basic at this level, and the materials are basically low-tech - some PDF guides along with pre- and post-activity surveys. But I'm including it here because I think the idea of connecting data (or, at least, the process of going out and gathering data for yourself) and education is an important one. The Discover Data resources are here. Two of the three activities are based on consumer culture (specifically, differential pricing and celebrity endoorsements).
