Demystifying Data: Foundations of Data Literacy Workshop for Students, Staff, and Faculty
Posted January 3, 2025 in Featured News, JMU Libraries News
In the digital age, data is everywhere—but how can we make sense of it? In today’s data-driven world, understanding how to find, assess, and manage data is essential.
Join our Demystifying Data workshop in Rose Library on February 4 to explore the core concepts of data literacy. From navigating misinformation to assessing data credibility and quality in a digital landscape, this session will provide practical skills for anyone looking to become data literate. Our Data Services Librarian, Samantha Harmon, will provide real-world examples to illustrate how effective data organization and ethical considerations are essential to making informed decisions and how to tell compelling stories with data.
