Abstract
Transforming the teaching of data Is your experience of teaching data less than exciting? Do you think there is more to teaching data than making bar charts of children’s favourite colours? And pictograms of modes of transport to school? Surely trend graphs can be used for reasons other than illustrating monthly rainfall? In this article we outline the latest exciting trends in teaching data handling.
