Welcome to Digging Into Data  

Hi Everyone,
Welcome! We hope that you have had a smooth start to this school year. Since we last met, we have continued to grow our Web site. You will find many new resources in the Investigation Resources section. If you have yet to locate the data you need for your first activity, you may want to browse through the new resources that have been added. Also, please do not hesitate to send "SOS" messages. That is, on Monday and Tuesday, it is perfectly fine to make posts such as, "Help! I'm looking for data that shows total dissolved solids in well water in Massachusetts! Does anyone know where I can I find this?" Your colleagues and the DataTools staff will do all they can to assist you in the process of finding and formatting the data you need.
Nick and Carla will be facilitating the group discussion areas each day. However, all of the DataTools project staff will also be in and out of all four of the discussion areas to answer questions as needed.
We look forward to "seeing" you online.
Thanks,---Nick & Carla

Hi, everyone!
The curriculum that my class is doing right now is on weather. I'm in the process of securing the permission of our technology office to install the GIS software because I want to let my students learn how to track hurricanes using GIS. I'm looking for the plan that Sean did during our Summer workshop. Students will be asked to write their observations regarding the path that hurricanes will take. I will also ask them if they could predict the next path using what they learned from the activity. I welcome any suggestions of how I can improve this plan. Thanks!
Mitchelle

Hi Mitchelle,
You may want to take a look at what Sean posted. He has shared information about his hurricane plan in the Group 2 discussion area. Thanks,---Carla
