摘要

随着数据科学领域随着先进的数据处理技术和方法的发展而发展，我们如何为专业和非专业教授本科统计学和数据科学课程也有了重新概念化的机会。在本文中，我们将重点关注这一重新概念化的三个关键组成部分:发展研究问题、职业道德和团队合作。我们分享了两组统计学或数据科学专业的本科生(新手和专家)在处理DataFest数据挑战时处于不同发展阶段的小插曲。这些小插曲揭示了重新概念化入门课程的机会，以便在给定复杂数据集、职业道德和偏见以及如何与他人有效合作时，更多地关注发展重点研究问题的过程中的问题。我们提供了一些教学和学习的启示，以及一个示例活动，供教育工作者在他们的课程中使用。

Insights from DataFest point to new opportunities for undergraduate statistics courses: Team collaborations, designing research questions, and data ethics

As the field of data science evolves with advancing technology and methods for working with data, so do the opportunities for re‐conceptualizing how we teach undergraduate statistics and data science courses for majors and non‐majors alike. In this paper, we focus on three crucial components for this re‐conceptualization: Developing research questions, professional ethics, and team collaborations. We share vignettes from two teams of undergraduate statistics or data science majors at two different stages of their development (novice and expert) while they worked on a DataFest data challenge. These vignettes shed light on opportunities for re‐conceptualizing introductory courses to give more attention to issues of the process of developing focused research questions when given a complex data set, professional ethics and bias, and how to collaborate effectively with others. We provide some implications for teaching and learning as well as an example activity for educators to use in their courses.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
