Event Description

The National Science Foundation’s Directorate for Education and Human Resources (EHR) invites you to participate in a town hall meeting to stimulate a national conversation on the topic of Data Science in Education.  Each day, there is more accessible data than there was the day before, and a professional skillset is emerging to meet the needs of a dynamically growing industry.  This town hall meeting will explore Data Science and its impact across all levels of education from K-12 through higher education, including community colleges, minority serving institutions, and graduate institutions. 

With speakers and open discussions, we will explore:

  • Data Science research across disciplines and fields
  • Ethical practices and approaches to Data Science
  • Teaching and Learning Data Science
  • Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in a ‘Data Science for All’ movement

The outcomes of this meeting will include a white paper that will capture the themes from these topics which can be used to inform future work in the field.

The town hall will be conducted virtually via Zoom. Pre-registration is required for this event.
