Professional Development
Interactive Workshops
High school teachers, learn directly from the youcubed curriculum writing team how to teach Explorations in Data Science, our full-year advanced mathematics course! The training is offered in two formats: weekly 2-hour online sessions during the school year or 4 days online in the summer. Both versions are interactive, cover all units (1-8) of Explorations in Data Science and include hands-on experience with the technology tools in the course.

Online Course
21st Century Teaching and Learning: Data Science is our online course designed to help anyone teach – and learn – with a 21st century approach to knowledge and teaching. Lesson 1 of the course shares important evidence we now have about the working of the brain, that is meaningful for all subjects and ages – and lives. We then move to thinking together about the data filled world in which we live, to prepare students for their future in a world of data. The course is completely online and self-paced, so you can take it on your own time.
