Pigs will Save Us from the Zombies: Achieving Data Literacy using Pop Culturelearjk
This document discusses using pop culture references like a zombie apocalypse to teach data literacy skills. It outlines steps taken to analyze and visualize US pig farm data to determine where pigs are located that could help humans survive a zombie outbreak. These steps include obtaining pig farm location and quantity data from the National Agricultural Statistics Service, processing the data in ArcMap to map it using different classification methods, and visualizing the results in maps showing factors like number of pigs per county, farms with pigs per square mile, and pigs per person. The goal is to both engage students and demonstrate how data can be analyzed and represented in different ways to tell different stories or draw different conclusions.
