This paper aims to expand our ideas of where to find data beyond the “usual places,” i.e. math, statistics and possibly science classes. It encourages readers to develop a “data lens” in order to see data everywhere. In the paper, I share the characteristics of a “data lens” and provide several examples of data activities for students of all ages, including museums, zoos, aquariums and after-school clubs.References
