Chernoff Faces

Chernoff faces are an unusual way of looking at data.  Instead of putting data into a bar chart or pie chart, you turn the data into facial features.  Here is an example from Wikipedia. (Click on the picture to see a larger version!).There are lots of ways of decorating a face, you can change the face shape, nose size, even how far apart the eyes are!

Here is a graphic showing what you can do...

We decided to find out a bit more about our visiting year 5, and so got them to draw Chernoff faces using these rules...

Having learnt a little more about each other we sorted our faces into groups using Venn Diagrams.

At open evening, we also asked many of our visiting students to do new Chernoff Faces with these new rules

Can you spot the staff faces?  Can you spot yours?
