Investigating U.S. Society with Data (USS-DATA) Curriculum Modules

Developed through the Strengthening Data Literacy across the Curriculum (SDLC) project, the Investigating U.S. Society with Data (USS-DATA) curriculum modules are designed to promote high school students’ statistical thinking and data literacy skills through investigations of social and economic conditions in the U.S. To conduct these 4-step data investigations, students work collaboratively to analyze large-scale U.S. population data using CODAP, an online tool that promotes conceptual understanding of statistical ideas through interactive data visualization.
