Gen Z Evolving and Leading Data Science Course 2ith Workbook: “EXCEL-ing with Visualization

Kimberly Green | 2023

Abstract

Although the labor market is craving skilled data gurus and is willing to pay them a substantial salary, very few high schools offer data science classes as part of their STEM education program. In lieu of the Career and Technical Education built-in computer courses, Gen Z hopes to offer a wide range of high schools a new custom of career-focused high school courses focused solely on data sciences. Students will be able to discover real-world problems that a data scientist may solve, along with the appropriate techniques to use. This course should provide students with pertinent, first-class instruction and experiences that lead to industry-standard credentials and college credit, and in due course, power students’ progress to high-demand jobs in rapid growth divisions.

After completing ten (10) modules, GenZ 101 will offer a bonus course (workbook) at the end. This complimentary course, “EXCEL-ing with Visualization”, will introduce students to Microsoft Excel. The students will learn how to create charts, charts, and tables using this program. With most organizations requiring candidates to have knowledge of Microsoft Excel, this course will give students hands-on experience before leaving high school.
