Statistics
Furbles started life as an idea for teaching statistics in an interesting way; it is also a great way to engage young learners in mathematics activities by looking at...
shapes;
numbers; and
colours.
Learners can also see the relationship between data and visual interpretations such as...
bar graphs;
tables; and
pie charts.
There is no doubt that these would be great activities to use on an Interactive Whiteboard.
I'm an eLearning Adviser specializing in stimulating and supporting innovation in learning via eBooks, eMagazines, blogs (including audio versions), online TV, interactive resources, forums, workshops, conferences and face2face consultations. Evaluating and becoming familiar with sustainable and new technologies allows me to respond to the needs of learning providers from a position of experience rather than 'hearsay'. Supported learning providers, in the northwest of England (UK), can contact me for FREE consultations. Based at Lancaster University I work for the JISC Regional Support Centre - Northwest.
