Creating Data Literate Students provides high school librarians and educatorswith foundational domain knowledge to teach a new subset of informationliteracy skills — data and statistical literacy, including: statistics and data comprehension; data as argument; and data visualization.Data — both raw and displayed in visualizations — can clarify or confuse,confirm or deny, persuade or deter. Students often learn that numbers areobjective, though data in the real world is rarely so. In fact, visualized data —even from authoritative sources — can sometimes be anything but objective.Librarians and classroom educators need to be as fluent with quantitativedata as they are with text in order to support high schoolers as they engagewith data in formal and informal settings. We asked contributors to thisvolume — experts in high school curriculum, information literacy and/ordata literacy — to explore the intersections between data and curriculumand identify high-impact strategies for demystifying data for educators andstudents alike.
