Data Clubs modules are designed to reflect the interests of middle school learners but are also appropriate for older youth. We developed three modules; click on the links below for more information and to request materials:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each module includes approximately 10 hours of activities, PDFs of printable content, and a list of materials needed. There are also links to several curated datasets in CODAP<\/a>, the free, web-based data analysis tool designed for \u201cdata scientists\u201d in grades 6 through 14\u2014no special information is necessary to access and use it. The Data Clubs team has also prepared a set of “Challenge Cards” to help youth learn how to use CODAP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The CODAP Challenge Cards can be accessed here: [Download PDF 4MB]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you prefer to use them as physical cards, here’s a printable version: [Download PDF 6MB]<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Data Clubs activities are grouped into five, two-hour sessions that can easily be offered in shorter or longer time blocks. The modules may be used in an in-school setting, but because they were designed and tested for out-of-school settings, such as afterschool programs or summer camps, the modules\u2019 statistical content is determined by the data themselves, and student interest, rather than on meeting curriculum benchmarks..<\/p>\n\n\n\n The modules will be most effectively delivered by teachers or facilitators who are already familiar with some data science concepts. The materials include instructions for facilitators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Instructions for accessing each module are available on the module\u2019s page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Three Youth-oriented Modules<\/p>\n Data Clubs modules are designed to reflect the interests of middle school learners but are also appropriate for older youth.
