DATALIT - Data Literacy at the interface of higher education and business
Datalit aim at laying the ground for the integration of data literacy as transversal topic in potentially all university courses, by identifying and developing common syllabus and innovative teaching and learning approaches. A blended learning concept, composed by transferrable study units that can be integrated in curricula of different courses, and by experiential learning projects in European enterprises.
The universities and companies that join the consortium play a central and synergic role in the design of training resources that address the concrete opportunities and risks for European enterprises and organisations in collecting, managing and exploiting data.
Impact:
- Defining a common understanding of what a data literate person is supposed to know;
- Fostering a culture of data literacy among European citizens;
- Making graduate students acquire the data skills they need to success in the job market.
