Incorporating datascience into K-12 education can equip students with the skills to critically analyze data, identifydiscrepancies, and avoid falling victim to misinformation and misleading data representations

Hence, there isa strong emphasis on teaching students design frameworks that can be leveraged to generatehigh quality solutions to real-world problems. The university is an undergraduate-onlyinstitute and has a student population of around 1000 who are affiliated with either the‘School of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences’ or the ‘School of Science and Engineering.’The engineering

When retrieval of the information wasdone, the amount of forgetting was delayed, and with each retrieval, the memory lasted longer still. Thisdoes not mean to reread the material again but to be more reflective of the material.Roediger and Karpicke [24] had two groups of students read the same text material. The first group hada short test immediately after the reading and the second group did not. One week later, both groupstook a different test on the material.

Vulnerability to stereotype threat canimpact any individual, but has been found to have different impacts on students based on genderand race. According to Steele [10], the experiences of African American students are uniquelyinfluenced by stereotype threat as a result of their association with a group whose intellectualabilities have been broadly questioned.

They can also assignprojects to be conducted within a home or community environment such that students furtherlink and see the applications of new concepts to real-world processes. This treatment of the homeor neighborhood goes beyond seeing it as a setting to go over a set of practice problems from atextbook, but rather views it as a dynamic environment that students interact with andexperiment in as part of the learning process [18].
