Easy access to data has changed everyday life as we have known it. And how we teach with data has potential to change the classroom we used to know. Teaching with data can mean many things—how you introduce students to data, how you assess their understanding of data, how students harness the technology and tools at their fingertips to make meaning of data, and how we transform our students into data-literate statisticians for the real world!
