How can we use GapMinder to animate statistical data?


After some search on the internet, I have been working on GapMinder to create a motion chart using some data converted from WorldBank. The good thing to use GapMinder is that if you want to show something related to data which GapMinder has already had, that is very easy and practical software. By the way, GapMinder allow you to use huge amount of development data in order to show country comparisons over time converted from various data source such as WorldBank, WHO, ILO etc. The main thing you need to consider about GapMinder is that you cannot insert the graph on your presentation. Instead, it allows you to download free version of GapMinder Desktop and show your statistical animations using GapMinder Desktop which you can download it from below link.
After downloading and installing the GapMinder Desktop, you can modify your own graphs using converted data to GapMinder and save your own graphs to show later. Here is the video to show how you can use the GapMinder Dektop.
