<p class="MsoNormal">Are you figuring out effective activities to teach data information literacy? Are you trying to integrate data literacy skills within existing courses? Are you creating curricula and stand-alone courses to teach data literacy? Are you teaching
one-shots with data skills embedded into your lecture? Are you completely befuddled as to how to do the above? If so, you have a new resource available to you.
