Swivel

Rosa and I are still working hard! At first I didn't like Swivel, since I'm not very fond of looking at data and I majored in psychology, imagine that! The more I played around with it the better I liked it except that I'm concerned that anyone can look at your data. I would consider data collected from my class to be confidential. I think though that I could use this as an activity for students to manipulate fake data for practice using this tool and for practice with technology. Is ther a way to keep data on swivel private?

I went through the swivel site and could find no way to make your data private. Which is silly. One thing you could do would be to make your data anonymous - use a number system instead of names, etc.
