Season 06 - Ep03: How Important Are the Numbers? A Data Literacy Dossier for Educators and Designers

In this episode, the Manager of Collaborative Learning from ASU’s Learning Experience team (Celia Coochwytewa) and the instructional designers from ASU’s Edson College of Nursing and Health Innovation (Jinnette Senecal, Aaron Kraft) explore key concepts and practical applications of data literacy for educators and designers, as highlighted in the 2022 EDUCAUSE Horizon Report, Data and Analytics Edition. We then consider professional learning pathways for developing data literacy fluency and implementation skills. Today’s HOT TOPIC is focused on a popular approach to enhancing professional/scholarly learning experiences: gamification. Resources from the episode: *Brown, A., Croft, B., Dello Stritto, M.
