Data literacy workshop

4T VIRTUAL CONFERENCE ON DATA LITERACY
THURSDAY, JULY 20 – FRIDAY, JULY 21,2017

Join us for a two-day exploration of data and statistics in the real world of students. How do students encounter and use data beyond science and math class? How do they make sense of Big Data, citizen science, managing their personal data, and recognizing and contributing to ethical data use? Featuring keynote presentations by Justin Schell of the University of Michigan Library’s Shapiro Design Lab and Emerson College’s Catherine d’Ignazio of the DataBasic.io project. Registration is free, and those registered with the Michigan Department of Education can earn 3-8 free SCECH credits.
