Unit Data and information

Year level: 5-6 Topic: Digital Systems Time: 6 hours

Acquiring data from online sources draws on, and develops, students’ digital literacy skills. Digital literacy skills include navigation skills and information management; synthesis and critical assessment; and the ethical and legal use of information. Spreadsheets are useful tools that enable us to manage, analyse and visualise data such as a chart or graph. Data validation is a key skill of using simple formulas to automate calculations. In this sequence, the students’ inquiry on a chosen context leads to them to design and create digital information that incorporates a data visualisation such as an infographic.
