Gapminder.org

Altering the variables We can change the x- and y-axis variable by clicking on the arrow of the respective axis. Your first graph should compare the

Your first graph Adjust the variables so that you have: An x-axis of Agricultural workers (% of labour force) Against A y-axis of Childen per woman (total fertility) • Point at the various circles to see which country it is. • What are the colours indicating?

Choosing a country and the timeline We can use the timeline by pressing play which shows how things have changed through the years. It is more useful to follow a country over the years to see how things have changed. Using the graph you started on the previous slide: • Choose Yemen • Run the timeline • What does this show?

Questions for you to answer using Gapfinder • Choose two of the countries you have visited this year in Geography. Open Word and explain WHY these two countries where chosen. • Choose two variables and see what the graph shows (eg. GNI, Literacy, Life expectancy) • Do a screen shot of the results • Write a little report on what this shows.
