Welcome to Data Scientist Junior!

According to Harvard Data Science Review, data science is a “multidisciplinary field based on the principled and purposed production, processing, parsing and analysis of data”. 

​

In today's data-driven world, everyone is a data scientist. However, data science is an emerging field, and so no standard curriculum is readily available for K-12. We have developed original teaching materials that are age appropriate, with hands-on activities to cultivate deep learning and foster curiosity. Our curriculum is designed based on best practices, including:

1. US High School Common Core Standards for Mathematics (Statistics and Probability)

2. CSTA K-12 Computer Science Standards

3. College Board AP Course: Computer Science Principles

4. Computing Competencies for Undergraduate Data Science Curricula (draft by ACM Data Science Task Force)

5. Introduction to Data Science (IDS) Curriculum by UCLA

6. Data Science Institute initiative for teachers & K-12 students, Columbia University
