Abstract Scope |
Developing a data literate workforce is crucial at every level, from K12 to PhD. However, undergraduate students are often resistant to learning basic data and coding skills. In other students, willingness to learn is eclipsed by a lack of basic computer literacy. In this presentation, lessons learned during the modernization of several individual classes and an undergraduate curriculum are discussed. Common pitfalls and strategies for overcoming them are presented. |
