This $299,981 National Science Foundation project grant supports research exploring student participation and data literacy skill development through Datafest competitions. Funded under the NSF's STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program, the grant aims to study over 2,000 undergraduate students annually engaging with authentic datasets at over 100 institutions through Datafest competitions. The grantee, Terc, Inc., will collect multi-site Datafest data to develop rich descriptions of how interdisciplinary teams navigate messy data and draw on diverse expertise. They will also examine participant demographics to explore broadening data science access and fostering data literacy across disciplines. Mixed methods including surveys, interviews, observations and video recordings will be used. Findings will inform participating sites and the larger Datafest community on interdisciplinary thinking and broadening participation in STEM. The 24-month project completion date is September 2024.
