Making Real Data Work Accessible in Intro Biology (and other courses!)

Want your students to do more with real data in your college course?

Bring authentic data into your course without overwhelming your students—or yourself. In this session, you’ll see how DataClassroom U lowers the barrier to working with real datasets in intro courses or labs. Learn strategies to help students move from spreadsheets to statistical thinking, practice essential analysis skills, and build a bridge toward tools like R and Python—all within a guided, user-friendly platform designed for teaching.
