We thought the video was interesting because of all the points he made about Data is the oil and he changed it to data is the new soil. Yvonne said an example of how back in the day if people wanted to cook up a recipe they couldn't because they wouldn't know all the ingredients. Nowadays a person can google a recipe and it gives them all the ingredients to make it. Data can also help you grow as a learner or a Creator. Data can also prove people wrong and change your opinions and perspectives. Also when people google information it can be bias. As learners this video shows us that information can be exaggerated or misinterpreted. Also we learned that people can manipulate data to their convenience. An example from the video would be the amount of soldiers in china and the U.S. In the video china has more soldiers but has less budget for their military and in the U.S they have less soldiers but more budget. Then in the video it shows that even though China has the highest amount of soldiers they also have less soldiers than North Korea. Also we learned that if the information is presented in a more creative way people are more likely to read it and remember the information. This relates back the Prezi's in class because each group made their presentations stand out with pictures, videos, different color texts, and music. Also we learned that when presenting data its would be useful to present it in a way where we reach out to all types of audiences and learners. In conclusion, it is important to present data in a way to prevent information overload because in the video he says our society has a problem with information overload. Also it is important to make data interesting by incorporating it into a story or something creative.
