Managing Data

Presented in my lecture this week was the concept of Managing Date and our Digital presence.
With growing technology, growing consumption of information and availability of data, we are presenting ourselves on a number of different platforms.

As well as the idea that the number of ways to gather and present data gathered through technologies such as GPS, heart rate monitors, speed/altitude trackers and so much more. The number and quality of apps which have appeared on the web is astounding, yet with so many different platforms to collect and present data, incompatible platforms are a difficulty. While some sporting codes and teams are overflowing with data and accesses to information that they just aren't using to their full possibility, other teams don't have accesses to nearly the plethora of technologies athletes in these codes often track their own data.

Interestingly Jarrod Robinson explores using a number of different technologies being used in Physical Education class which where once reserved for elite athletes in his article "Using Elite-Level Equipment in Schools." Raising a number of different technologies and their uses in the classroom. There can be no doubt that raising the use and integration of different technologies to engage students on another level and produce relevant data to dissect directly relating to the students, is yet another amazing and inventive product of the technological boom.
