Transform your classroom into a hub of "joy" where students use data to tell powerful stories of their roots. Join us in an exploratory session that unveils an interdisciplinary unit blending statistics and history, guiding students through a "data dive" into the Southeast Asian refugee crisis. By integrating critical thinking strands, we will demonstrate how data visualization and AI synthesize knowledge to solve real-world problems. We will model advanced search strategies to validate authentic data, emphasizing ethical practices and human judgment. Educators will master techniques for justifying mathematical arguments through the use of precise language and digital formats.
