Data Literacy

Data literacy, or the ability to decode, understand, critically interrogate, and create data-informed arguments in a variety of genres is a key element of any 21st-century researcher’s toolkit. The Research Data and Digital Scholarship team can help members of the Penn community gain a more nuanced understanding of ethical and equitable approaches to working with data.
