University of Michigan

The University of Michigan will work with data literacy experts and curriculum designers to create open educational resources for librarians to build their data literacy skills. The resources will include: 1) a data literacy handbook of information and instructional resources? 2) two one-day data literacy virtual conferences? and 3) multimedia and PDF content drawn from those resources and packaged into one-hour professional development (PD) content for face-to-face implementation at the school, district, community, or state levels. Providing training for high school library instructors will enable them to provide enhanced instruction and improve the data fluency of students.
