Data Science Education Conference

February, 2025

Data Paths team members presented a session, “Supporting Data Science for All through Integration Into Mainstream Subjects in Grades PreK-12,” at the Data Science Education K-12: Research to Practice Conference in Austin, TX.  We discussed:

• Development of an educator guide that identifies how data learning objectives for grades preK-12 align with and support disciplinary standards in mathematics, science, and other subjects.
• Work to develop new tools and curriculum materials that integrate data science into preK learning, middle-school mathematics, and high-school biology—as well as data science integration challenges and promising approaches.

Data Paths team members spotlighted EDC’s Data Paths project at an exhibit table at the ATMIM [Association of Teachers of Mathematics in Massachusetts] 2025 Spring Conference—Breaking Boundaries: Beyond the Limits of Mathematics—at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, MA. Our team was excited to meet with over 125 teachers and share our upcoming professional learning opportunities.
