Where does data science lives according to the Standards?

Alignment of data science topics with NGSS and CSTA standards

The dynamic visualization presented here, created by the API Can Code research team, allows you to explore how data science topics align with key educational standards. The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) emphasize science and engineering practices, crosscutting concepts, and disciplinary core ideas to promote a cohesive understanding of scientific principles (Learn more). The Computer Science Teachers Association (CSTA) Standards outline the essential knowledge and skills students need to thrive in the digital world, focusing on computational thinking, programming, and the societal impact of computing (Learn more). This visualization aimed to help educators and curriculum developers bridge these frameworks with data science topics to create integrated, meaningful learning experiences.
