Reflection on the learning goal:

to be able to analyse data in various formats

• I am confident that I can analyse data in various formats.

  I could probably teach someone else.

• I can usually analyse data in various formats.

• I am beginning to analyse data in various formats.

• I still need help to analyse data in various formats.
