Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

      I agree that PE, art and music are important in the schools. Movement is very important. I make sure my students move around and exercise before each class and between testing events. I teach the children that movement helps get oxygen to the brain and they can think better. I teach them the same thing about drinking water as apposed to soda. These lessons do not take long and they help my students keep focused on their learning.
