Real Teaching with Real Data
Thursday November 7, 2024 2:30pm - 3:20pm EST
Conference Room 1 - Downstairs
Dive into the world of authentic scientific inquiry. This hands-on session leverages public health data from NC State's Center for Human Health and the Environment to empower educators with practical strategies for teaching with real research data. Discover how to guide students through investigating complex datasets, formulating their own questions, and drawing compelling conclusions through the lens of PFAS water contamination data. Whether you're looking to enhance data literacy or inspire a new generation of critical thinkers and data scientists, this workshop provides valuable tools and insights for integrating real-world data into your curriculum. Join us to transform data into a dynamic teaching tool that builds student agency and sparks curiosity in your students!
