Data Science and Data Literacy as an Integrated Component of K-12 Education

In alignment with Data Science for Everyone (DS4E), WeTeach_DataScience aims to catalyze the adoption of data science and data literacy as an integrated component of K-12 education across Texas. 

Data Science Integration

Data science integration goes beyond offering standalone DS courses. We envision data science as a lens through which students engage with their core subjects. Integration can include:

• Analyzing historical trends in social studies
• Discovering patterns in literature
• Modeling phenomena in science
• Solving real-world problems in mathematics

Students learn to think critically about data and make evidence-based decisions across subjects.

Teachers don't need to become data scientists; they simply incorporate data-driven thinking into the subjects they already teach.
