Something, perhaps, that echos your two comments:

1. “Here’s the big conviction: the ability to interpret and create this kinda nonsense is an essential skill, something out of the new canon.”

2. “Best way to practice that with high school students? Have them analyze something totally random and totally nonsensical (like coffee drinks) in a very serious, non-routine way.”

…and gives teacher/edublogger-types the opportunity to…oh, I don’t know…’express thyself’ via analytical visual data sets in an espresso coffee cup sort of way?

I’ll take a venti. Whatever’s strongest. “No room”. And whatever you need in the ‘help’ data set column (or pie graph slice).

Cheers, Christian
