Regardless of where you and your students stand on the results of the election it certainly leaves many other issues to explore. One may be the political/social/cultural divide in our country. Below are a couple of resources that use graphic representation of the election returns. http://www.esri.com/industries/elections/graphics/results2004_lg.jpg http://www.princeton.edu/~rvdb/JAVA/election2004/ These may be useful for engaging students in conversations about the results as well as demonstrating the power of using graphic representation of data. Please share any post-election resources you have and say a word about how they may be used. All the best, Mariann Mariann Fedele Coordinator of Professional Development, Literacy Assistance Center Interim Moderator, NIFL Technology and Literacy Discussion List 32 Broadway 10th Floor New York, New York 10004 212-803-3325 mariannf@lacnyc.org www.lacnyc.org
