Follow Friday – Callysto
On Fridays, I share what I believe to be a notable person/organization/school on our social media pages to assist our staff in the development of their online Personal Learning Network.
This week I had an opportunity to sit in on a presentation that featured the work of Callysto which I thought would be a fantastic resource to share with teachers. I believe that this would be an opportune time to share our about their data science supports as our staff are already starting to plan out their activities for Computer Science Education week at the beginning of December. If Callysto is brand-new to you, they describe themselves as,
…a free, online learning tool that helps Grades 5-12 students and teachers learn and apply in-demand data science skills including data analysis and visualization, coding, and computational thinking. Our interactive learning modules are available in a variety of subjects – from math to history – and are aligned with existing curriculum.
Our mission is to foster computational thinking and data literacy skills in Canadian schools.
