Acquiring, managing and analysing data

This content descriptor sets out learning for Years 7 to 8 Digital Technologies. Use it to plan lessons and assessment with the Australian Curriculum v9.

Elaborations

  • • Elaboration summarising data based on its attributes to identify trends and make predictions, for example sorting crime data by type of offence, showing that burglaries have decreased over time to predict fewer burglaries will happen next year
  • • Elaboration visualising multidimensional data by choosing appropriate graphs, for example a scatter plot of food prices and sales, coloured by each food’s sugar content, or diagrams such as a social network diagram and maps of crime rates by location to reveal trends, outliers or other information
  • • Elaboration using an AI model with a natural language interface to generate queries to perform analysis; for example, describing a database schema and asking the model to generate an SQL query to find results that match a set of criteria
  • • Elaboration comparing the analysis performed by a trained predictive AI model with other analysis techniques; for example, comparing the output from a classification model against data tagged manually to verify its accuracy and effectiveness
