    Lots of great data to expose our students to here. Let them go nuts with the graphs and write their explanation and rationalie.

    I like this one for its simple use of polling data to make projections. As John Becker said, they take a baseball stats approach to the election.

  • Consider letting students create teacher PD as part of their technology education program.
  • Move towards a model of embedded professional development.  Binge professional development that happens in one day rarely creates sustainable, system wide change.  Move toward embedded programs like the 23 things that involve teachers in their own pd and requires them to research, reflect, and use the tools.
