DataClassroom is an educational tool for data visualization and analysis, for both K-12 and college level use.
We're enjoying seeing students liking using our tools and getting more out of their studies! #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy
Data visualization is an imperative part of any data analysis. And DataClassroom has three reasons why. Read more on our blog: https://about.dataclassroom.com/blog/data-visualization
Guess what? DataClassroom has built-in function for applying a mathematical transform to a whole column at once. https://about.dataclassroom.com/blog/transforming-data #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy
Webinar next week: Preparing for Symposiums, Poster Sessions and Science Research Competitions Being able to clearly explain your data analysis is a skill — and it's a skill that students can be trained in. July 21 from 4:15 - 5:00pm EST Register: https://about.dataclassroom.com/upcoming-workshops
Great feedback from a first-time user of DataClassroom U! https://u.dataclassroom.com/ #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy
How do you choose the right statistical test? Start with your research question, choose the right graph, and the correct test becomes clear. https://about.dataclassroom.com/statistics-snippets/which-statistics-test

The DataClassroom Interactive T-test gives a visual, intuitive understanding of what the math in the test is actually doing. Get a real feel for how the math works! https://about.dataclassroom.com/blog/demystifying-the-t-test #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy #experimentaldesign
Using a DataClassroom simulation you can decide on your experimental variables, think more deeply about what to measure, and try out visualizations - all before you go to the lab! https://about.dataclassroom.com/blog/plan-an-experiment-with-simulation #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy
It's really motivating that we can help those that are finding graphing and stats a challenge. #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy

In this simulation activity, students draw cards from a (possibly rigged) virtual deck. https://about.dataclassroom.com/ready-to-teach/stacked-deck As they collect more data, they watch their certainty shift. A perfect intro to hypothesis testing for any stats or science course.
There's an idea that students must use spreadsheets for everything - because “that’s what they’ll use in the workplace”. But scientists don’t much use spreadsheets for analysis. https://about.dataclassroom.com/blog/excel-in-the-classroom-go-one-better #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy
Excel in the science classroom? Go one better. — DataClassroom
There is a misconception that students should use spreadsheets for everything - because “that’s what they’ll be using when they are in the workplace” . But scientists don’t generally use spreadsheets for visualization and analysis . And there’s a reason for that.

Graph Lab is our free weekly graph reading activity designed to build one of the most important — and most underpracticed — skills in science: the ability to read a graph cold. Check out the first set: https://about.dataclassroom.com/blog/graph-lab
Webinar TONIGHT May 12 from 4:15pm - 5:00pm EST https://about.dataclassroom.com/upcoming-workshops This webinar helps educators teach visualization choices — when to use scatter plots, box plots, histograms, or line graphs — and how the shape of the data and the variable types drive the decision.

The Bridge to R feature lets you build a visualization and run a hypothesis test in DataClassroom - and then generates nice, well-annotated code to do the same thing in R! Read more on the blog: https://about.dataclassroom.com/blog/bridge-to-r #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy
Students starting to design their surveys? In this blog post we focus on the topics most relevant for making easily-analyzable data, like goals, using survey tools and planning your analysis FIRST! https://about.dataclassroom.com/blog/survey-design #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy
For true data literacy we need to move on from the simple bar graph and use graphs that show you more. Why? Check out the blog: https://about.dataclassroom.com/blog/the-end-of-the-bar-graph #DataScience #TeachingStats #DataLiteracy
