The emerging field of Data Science has had a large impact on
science and society. This book explores how one distinguishing
feature of Data Science - its focus on data collected from social
and environmental contexts within which learners often find
themselves deeply embedded - suggests serious implications for
learning and education. Drawing from theories of learning and
identity development in the learning sciences, this volume
investigates the impacts of these complex relationships on how
learners think about, use, and share data, including their
understandings of data in light of history, race, geography, and
politics. More than just using 'real world examples' to motivate
students to work with data, this book demonstrates how learners'
relationships to data shape how they approach those data with
agency, as part of their social and cultural lives. Together, the
contributions offer a vision of how the learning sciences can
contribute to a more expansive, socially aware, and transformative
Data Science Education. The chapters in this book were originally
published as a special issue of the Journal of the Learning
Sciences.
