Making Data tell a Story

I don’t think anybody does it better than Hans Rosling. In the following video he helps to explain population growth, child mortality, and fossil fuel usage based upon wealth. I love how he uses toy blocks and chips to help visualize his point.

  1. Reblogged this on Clive Gold and commented:
    Great, simple and compelling (just over 3mins) and if you like this, have a look at Rosling’s TED talks.
