    Department

    AI Data Science 4 Everyone


    About the Department

    Data Science 4 Everyone is a national initiative working to catalyze the adoption of data science and data literacy as a fundamental component of K-12 education. DS4E facilitates a broad and growing coalition of system leaders in U.S. education, seeded by support from Steven Levitt (Freakonomics), Arne Duncan (fmr. U.S. Secretary of Education), Linda Darling-Hammond (Learning Policy Institute, California State Board of Education), Eric Schmidt (fmr. CEO Google), Ken Griffin (CEO of Citadel), Scott Cook (co-founder of Intuit), and many others. Incubated at the Center for RISC and popularized by the 2019 Freakonomics podcast America's Math Curriculum Doesn't Add Up, DS4E is quickly expanding into a new dedicated team at the University of Chicago, striving to teach students the basics of modern data across school subjects and grade-levels. Our core focus is to raise awareness and work with stakeholders across U.S. education to ensure every student is data literate by high school graduation, and can meaningfully participate in and build a data-driven future. In just 3 years, DS4E has grown data science education programs in 15 states, hundreds of schools, and with numerous national partners. As a field catalyst, DS4E builds awareness with local, state, and national leaders, centralizes and disseminates resources, hosts convenings and communities of practice, creates partnerships to support and train educators across the country, and helps schools and districts design new K-12 programs for all students.
