Analyse data with coding tools to foster authorship

Data science is vital in the digital age to support Responsible Research and Innovation.

This initiative based on various projects focuses on big data, mixed methods and coding tools to examine how to foster scientific authorship and competences for practice and policy changes.

Arguing from data with AR for critical thinking  

Teaching argumentation from and supported by data is vital for students to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Our projects and resources focus on socio-scientific dilemmas and AR games to support kids to learn how to identify fake information and argue from scientific data.
