Data is new oil.. rightly said.. In the era of digital world we need to more aware about what digital world selling us and how mass media manipulating us.. data literacy can help to make better judgement..
His opening points, the reason for wanting to become data literate, can be also solved by being more vigilant about statistics intake in media. Look up sources and question every number or indication of a number you read. "Most people.." can be based on a survey held in the US in 100 respondents who are all university students. Or something like "2 out of 5 teens in university..." can refer to only 18 and 19 year olds who are in university, leaving other students out of the dataset.

"“Figures lie and liars figure”. I've heard this phrase for years and too often, it's the second part of that phrase is true. Numbers and data aren't the problem. It's the statisticians (number torturers) working for people/organizations with an agenda manipulating the data to self-servingly push a conclusion. Usually a bad one.
Speech felt empty. Ok, we've been badgered for the past few years about the importance of data literacy. Read and make sense of data. Ok, what does that mean in real life, once the average person gets off of work? Saying that one should be curious and creative means what for Joe Average? In other words; we need ACTIONABLE information. Saying "be aware, be aware!"...and then not following up with concrete steps, is not exactly useful.
But he did give examples in real life: buying home appliances (fridge & washing machine) and analyzing hoax data. As adults with critical thinking, we can interpret his theory with our own frame of thinking and find more examples that works in our everyday life.
Here's what I suggest: 1. Watch a crash course in statistics (to understand more about how data is collected, what the different graphs means, and why we need to talk about confidence intervals when we talk about the results of statistical analyses). 2. Watch a crash course in AI, more specifically Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) to understand how they work and why they are so limited compared to humans (yes, AI is an extremely fast tool, but it has zero creativity or drive). 3. Watch a crash course in data science to understand how data scientists try to use data and AI to analyze data, automate processes, and make predictions. Once you do that, try to apply what you learn to the things you read. You don't have to conduct your own analyses or create your own prediction algorithms, but you'll better understand what you read. Who knows what path that will take you on? Think of this as learning a new language. For example, if you don't know French right now, reading a French paper will do nothing for you. But if you start learning a little French every day, in a few months you'll be able to read things you couldn't have read otherwise. And, for some reason, we humans love that: doing interesting, mentally stimulating things, even if many of them have no practical value. But again, that's what makes us special. 😊
Data literacy is still important, even when it's not important for everyone. And it should be important for everyone as there's much manipulation going around before elections for example (Okay, you could argue "that's information literacy, it has nothing to do with data", but still it's important)
This is so important in this new age, I am lucky to have grown up with all of this. I am concerned for the 40+ year olds, it's going to be tough for our parents! I do all I can to minimise the amount of data I consume and also give away. I'd pay above the odds for products that don't make us products ourselves!
Oh...u inspired me to solve the Data interpretation questions which seems impossible thing to me because it has mathematical application. Btw,am finally trying to solve the questions and I know I will smash my mathematics phobia this time... Love from India ❤️
One thing is missing: having access to the right data from a reliable source. Often the most interesting data is missing or inaccessible. Then, there is also the trouble of knowing whether the data is reliable/truthful... To take the refrigerator example, one of the things we typically do not find on the "sheets" is how many years the product lasts without needinga repair....there are many things like that.
I take a full benefit of this vid about observing and processing data. But imho, the last part (human element in making decision) definetely needs a separate time for more elaboration. Decision making process is very complex and it needs much more than just creativite thinking.
Whether the belief of: "That knowledge can be enhanced by data ... ," is a truthful comment. Although, one important fact was left out. The fact of data, can either be truthful or fabricated and implemented by digital force.
O conceito de "Alfabetização de dados" me chamou muita atenção, pois é a verdade, sem estarmos alfabetizados não conseguiremos ler e escrever sobre isto. Alfabetizar significa aprender a ler e escrever e letrar significa compreender e interpretar. Entendo que compreender sobre dados inclui estes dois processos que são complemetares ao desenvolvimento do individuo sobre a temática.
Muy interesante lo expuesto, Y lo más interesante fue cuando dijo que A los dato se les llama el nuevo combustible, que hace referencia a la nueva era digital que estamos viviendo.
Nice, but information sheets are not always made to be comprehensive. It's a bit like using HP for cars. Why not use torque, gear ratios and weight instead? Nah. But yet a 110HP engine can beat a 2000HP engine.
I have no idea what hes talkin about, what i got from this video is that i can buy new piece of tech and have reasons for it (like buying a new phone bcoz it has higher pixel density or whatever) Un impressed
This long winded and over educated guy needs to question if he has the survival skills to feed his family when the grid goes down for an extended period. All his high tech literacy will be useless then.

@@kkevus It's interesting that Morrow seems to conflate data literacy with information and media literacy. But then we also have digital literacy...

you probably know that the 40+ have designed all of these products and created the basis for all of it? :-D

that's right! I would add the skill of knowing how and where to find reliable sources to that definition of data literacy he gave

Data collection has to go through people to get value. Nicely said.
to be VALIDATED like, ......maybe hmmmmmm??? Through the PUBLIC DOMAIN consciousness?
Great, great speech, so relevant
This is indeed amazing and good point there. 🔥🔥
This is gold

Very interesting and informative.
Great speech
Muhteşem konuşma için teşekkürler.👏👏🇹🇷🇹🇷
It getting tougher to find great talks I see!
Super excited 😁👏🙌😁
Love u tedtalks
Wow. Inspiring
Let's play a game called "Open This Email Right Now"-you win!
No mind what he says he makes it sound extremely interesting
Brilliant Thankyou
Amazing
Question everything!
How do I learn about data literacy? Any help?
The digital revolution of this generation is rapid.
Nyc 1 bro👌
Muito bom!

Literacy includes figuring out the intend of the authors, intended recipients and impotence.
Perhaps it’s more of the team in the pit stop that are better prepared so you can get back on track and win the race..
Body language is on point..
I have no idea what hes talkin about, what i got from this video is that i can buy new piece of tech and have reasons for it (like buying a new phone bcoz it has higher pixel density or whatever)
Un impressed
Thanks
It is 2023, this talk is still up-to-date.
Don’t forget about your touchscreen bed

is an 8bit proccessor running at 16ghz equivalent to a 32bit proccessor running at 4? :)
Will B yes
@@hillsidebliss im just going to believe you, even though i know way too well how wrong you are.
Will B I completely guessed. Lol
In an odd way, that felt patronising.
Point to be noted ✍...
did you know you need a stuffed animal that calls you names and works for China? because I have one. its called a Furby. :)
👍👍👍👍
oii first
Good

Yup, another lamb to the slaughter
i dont trust this guy, he doesnt even have a credit card that displays his ballance. :)
I just go to Snopes to find out if something is true.
That's good. Thanks a lot.
Q lastima q no lo entienda y no tenga subtitulos en español.
Anything practical here? I don't think so.

We know what a newspaper is. Don't start by patronizing your audience.
You missed you target audience. It was hard to the beginner to relate to you example.
is your fridge anti vax and flat earth savvy ???

Self evident platitudes ...
That's 'datum-literate'. Let's try starting with regular literacy, shall we?
Anyone else bothered by his hair line
