High-quality, engaging, relatable datasets are essential for data science education, and early research shows that a student’s selection of dataset has a substantial impact on their engagement. Below you will find an array of datasets that are well suited for K-12 education, as well as in the college and university setting. We encourage you to implement these ready-to-use datasets into your data science lessons

Datasets Specification

Coalition members Emmanuel Schanzer (Bootstrap) and Dan Schneider (Code.org) have collaborated with DS4E staff to develop an in depth specification guide that offers a pathway for individuals to find, clean, document, and upload datasets that can be used in K-12 data science tools.
