Description

This activity gives beginners an accessible introduction to crowd-sourcing data, visualization, and data analysis using interactive tools. The aim is to demonstrate that anybody can contribute to data science projects and that computer science can be connected to a wide variety of topics (even trends in popular culture) making it relevant to a variety of people. In this activity, students practice asking their own questions about popular culture and seeking answers to those questions using computational tools.
