May 20, 2014
Learning environments where students are active creators can help foster engagement
and a sense of accomplishment. If your students are involved in data analysis and
presentation, using these exciting and interactive tools could help them get hooked
on working with data. These online interfaces are extremely easy to use and accept
data in a variety of formats. Once completed, visualizations can be embedded into
Blackboard or other websites. In some cases, viewers can also interact with the data.
