Well, well, well… (Global Health and Data Interpretation)

Thursday, August 10th, 2006

It took Gapminder.com to get me back online and posting! Thanks to Darren Wilson (who also put together InspiredClassrooms.net) for emailing this link to me: http://tedblog.typepad.com/tedblog/2006/06/hans_rosling_on.html

First, this 20 minute video is well worth the watch just for the purpose of informing one self about global health issues and global trends. Second, the way this professor presents the data is beyond phenomenal. Take a look at the video and then take a look at Gap Minder.

Good stuff…
