Peoplemovin es un proyecto experimental de visualización de datos realizado por Carlo Zapponi. Elaborado con datos de los movimientos de 2010, esta infografía en HTML5 permite observar de manera sencilla los flujos de migración entre países: a la izquierda los de salida y a la derecha los de entrada. Trastead un poco porque es fantástico. Enlace: Peoplemovin http://peoplemov.in/

Es buenísimo, llama la atención el caso de Portugal, con 2M de emigrados y casi uno de inmigrantes. Da la impresión de que la creciente mercantilización de las personas genera huecos y movimientos para llenarlos del modo más extraño, y me temo que cada vez habrá más países que a la vez expiden brazos de un perfil y los reclaman de otro. Argentina es otro peculiar y España lo será cada vez más en el mismo sentido.

The map above was first presented to me in one of my undergraduate classes on international information systems. I thought it was really interesting and had never seen such a precise version before. Years have passed since then and yesterday I happened to stumble across it at ToBeDetermined.org.

The purpose of the map is to show how quickly specific regions can be disconnected through natural or man-made disasters. However, just being able to graphically see how all the different regions of the world are connected to each other through underwater internet pipelines is quite impressive.

It is easy to surf the web, chat on Facebook and stream TV shows online without realizing that, without the existence of underwater cable systems, our close knit online community would be largely separated. The internet didn’t just magically appear one day after all!

We can also see the importance of the two major pipelines that connect Africa to the rest of the World. The cable connecting Spain and Portugal to South Africa is known as SAT2 and has been in use since 1993. The cable that connects India to East Africa is known as SAT3 and has only been in use in recent years.

These two connections have been invaluable in catching coastal parts of Africa up to speed with the rest of the world in terms of internet connectivity. In coming years these two internet pipelines will play major roles in connecting the heartland of Africa to the rest of the World.

No hay deberes en Finlandia...

To some people, Finland isn’t a whole lot more than a chilly, northern country boasting a population of around 5 million people. Whether you’ve been to Finland or not, you probably haven’t had the chance to take an up-close and personal look at one of Finland’s greatest accomplishments to date – its high-achieving education system.

Students in Finland have, over the past several years, risen to the top of the academic food-chain, and they’ve become some of the top scholarly performers in the world. Compared to many other developed nations, including the US and Canada, Finland’s high school graduation rates have continued to grow steadily and impressively. Furthermore, a huge percentage of students continue on to earn college degrees, and students at all levels perform exceedingly well on standardized tests.

So what’s Finland’s secret? It’s hard to say for sure, but some good guesses as to the source of their success include respecting their teachers highly, assigning students less homework and more recess time, and keeping standardized testing to a minimum. The following infographic from Onlineclasses.org takes an in-depth look at some of the details behind Finland’s educational system, and what makes it work so well.
