Data Activity Ideas for Young Data Scientists
"This blog is a space where I share the same updates, ideas, and resources that I email to teachers in my network — but in a way that’s easy to browse, revisit, and share. From workshop highlights and classroom-ready activities to professional learning opportunities, each post is written with busy educators in mind.
Inspired in part by Dear Data by Giorgia Lupi and Stefanie Posavec, follow along for stories shared beyond the IDEEM summer workshop. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, new strategies, or a glimpse into our collaborative work with data and mathematics, you’ll find it here. "
