Visual Ranking – What is it? The Visual Ranking Tool makes the process of ranking items and comparing lists easy. Working in teams, students collaborate and negotiate their reasoning. The comment feature provides a place to record their rationale. Students compare their results with their classmates' versions and discuss the differences and similarities. Visual Ranking displays how closely the lists match and shows the correlation between two rankings. Demonstrate: try the tool - demo QUESTIONS?

Give it a try… Project Name: River City Prompt: Which industries do you believe have the least negative effect on the river environment while at the same time providing the most benefits to the community?
