The Guardian's Data Store Looks Promising

The Guardian recently launched a new component to their website that they are calling the Data Store. The Data Store is designed to showcase infographics, interactive displays, and articles that use data to illustrate an idea. The Data Store not only features the work of Guardian writers, but also pulls and shares information from other prominent data blogs. The Data Store has categories for European data, world data, development data, and US data. Additionally, there is an A-Z index of data-related articles and graphics in the Data Store.

Applications for Education
The Data Store could be a good place to find current news resources to use in your classroom. The combination of text and graphics could make materials more accessible to more students.
