Google Public Data Explorer

 

Google Public Data Explorer is a free way to analyze public data.  I first posted about this in 2015.  It is worth taking a look at it again. You can look at fertility rate, life expectancy, HIV prevalence,  education, etc for many countries all at once.  You pick what you want to plot on what axis.  You can animate the graph through the century by moving a slider to see how things change over time.  To see this website click here.   This might work well in your Data Analysis class or Statistics unit.  This might work in your Geography class if you want to look at GDP versus Population Density, etc.  Play around with it to see what you can find out.

Blue Zones Life Expectancy Calculator

If you go to Blue Zones and take their short survey it will calculate how long you will live and give you some information on how to live longer based on your input.  To see the calculator and take their quiz click here.  You will have to register but it is free.  If you are teaching a health  or foods/nutrition class, this might be something to have your class try.
