I'm at the @mctm-mn.bsky.social conference and have been seeing this *awesome* version of the data cycle from youcubed. I like this way better than the circle version!

Image shows a set of linked rings, almost like waves with connections back to the beginning.

Data Science | K-10
BIG IDEAS

A Selection of Big Ideas from Data Science – from GAISE II (2021).

Formulate statistical investigative questions

Formulate statistical investigative questions
Students generate ideas and ask questions – creating and refining statistical investigation questions

Collect/consider data

Students learn what counts as data (eg visuals, sounds, numbers, categories) and understand that people collect data to answer questions
Students develop strategies to collect and organize data of various types and from various sources
Students design studies to answer statistical investigative questions

Analyze data

Students develop ways to represent and interrogate data to notice, describe and analyze patterns
Students recognize variability and use technology to develop models that incorporate statistical measures

Interpret and communicate

Students decide key results to include in a data report that answers the statistical investigative question
Students communicate their results through, for example, a data visual, a poster, a video, a data story
Students explore and share explanations, paying careful attention to what conclusions the data supports. They consider which alternatives are reasonable given the variability in findings
