  4. Handout for Freeplane

Digital skills

  1. Introduction to working with a concept mapping tool
  2. There are different formats in which data can be captured
  3. One data format can be converted to another and multiple formats can be combined

Description of activity with detailed steps

Teacher led activity

  1. Your teacher will take you through a process of explaining data organization and method. For this she will use a concept mapping tool.
  2. We will use an existing data set to work on this. (We will use the languages of India map used in the previous activity)
  3. Your teacher will discuss with you how the mind map can be used to organize a process as well as be used as an output format. The mind map can be used as a live mind map or as an image.
  4. The mind map (dynamic) and image (static) are both given below.

Student activities

  1. You worked on different data collection and organizing activities in the previous section. For each data set that you collected, make a concept map representing the various data elements, the methods of organizing and possible ways of representing
  2. You can create a mind map as an introduction to the data analysis and store it in your folder.

Portfolio

  1. Your data sets - raw data, tabulated by hand and digitzed
  2. Your concept map files with your explorations of the organized data
