Analyzing Voter Data

Our friends at The Tech Interactive have created an interesting task which has students analyze, map, and graph voter data in a data science and computational thinking lesson. Students then take on the role of data journalists to share the story of their data with others. This lesson draws on voter data from international data sets as well as the United States Census Bureau. Students use CODAP (Common Online Data Analysis Platform) to look for patterns in the data and then share what they have found with others.
