As is rapidly becoming clear, data science increasingly permeates many aspects of life. Educational research recognizes the importance and complexity of learning data science. In line with this imperative, there is a growing need to investigate the factors that influence student performance in data science tasks. In this paper, we aimed to apply…

The significance of ethics in data science research has attracted considerable attention in recent years. While there is widespread agreement on the importance of teaching ethics within computing contexts, there is no clear method for its implementation and assessment. Studies focusing on methods for integrating ethics into data science courses…

The development of data science curricula has gained attention in academia and industry. Yet, less is known about the pedagogical practices and tools employed in data science education. Through a systematic literature review, we summarize prior pedagogical practices and tools used in data science initiatives at the higher education level.…

This study examined the data science career preference, data science skills, and core competencies of 416 students from fourteen Nigerian universities using a Google Forms-created structured online questionnaire. A convenience sampling technique was adopted to select the participants. Data were analysed using both descriptive and inferential…

Preparing the new generation to be data-literate citizens is a pressing challenge, and some explorations have been made to cultivate K-12 students' data science skills and attitudes. However, there is a lack of instructional models to guide the design of data science programs in K-12 due to its complex and interdisciplinary nature as well as the…

This article discusses the key elements of the Data Science Technology course offered to postgraduate students enrolled in the Master of Data Science program. This course complements the existing curriculum by providing the skills to handle the Big Data platform and tools, in addition to data science activities. We tackle the discussion about this…
