lecture on excellent net-accessible graphing utility: watch the world getting better Five GoldenYak (tm) award- the auroran sunset

A 20-minute video of a talk by a real teacher, on understanding statistics, the improving world and the myth of equality.

The way he presents the statistics is both very clear, and pretty! He’s also quite funny.

From the following link, you can keep up to date with Gapminder.

The excellent graphing tools and associated data banks shown in the lecture can be accessed directly at gapminder tools.

Here is a link to the human development trends slideshows that are part of the video lecture above.
