Archive: Sensor Immersion: Incorporating Data Science in the Classroom, February 9, 2026

As science becomes more advanced in its techniques and approaches, incorporating them into K-12 classrooms, as recommended by the NGSS, can feel overwhelming. This is particularly true of data science, which is its own field of study, complete with practices and core ideas focused on collecting, analyzing, and visualizing streams of numerical data.

In this webinar we share an easy to implement unit that can open students' minds to the world of data science and allow for easy integration of data literacy into all of your science units.
