Data Science and Computer Science Education
摘要
This chapter focuses on teaching and learning data science. As computer science is one of the basic components of data science, data science education has a unique meaning and role in the context of computer science education. Accordingly, we dedicate special attention to data science pedagogy, highlighting both the learners’ perspective and the teachers’ perspective. In the activities presented to the students enrolled in the MTCS course included in this chapter, we aim to highlight the opportunities that data science opens for the students with respect to their future study choices. At the same time, the activities highlight the relevance of data science to the teaching of computer science delivering the message that the teaching processes of the two fields can mutually contribute to each other.
