Courage to Care: What Does Data Say About Us?

Learning intentions

Students will:

• identify and compare different data collection methods such as census, sampling, experiment, and observation
• explore how these methods shape the stories that data tells about communities.

Success criteria

Students can:

• identify whether data has been collected using a census, sampling, experiment or observation
• describe the differences and similarities between data collection methods
• explain how data collection methods can influence what is visible or missing in data about people or communities
• recognise how data can tell stories about diversity and lived experiences.
