To help ensure that students can critically evaluate data--and use it to promote social justice--this book outlines principles and practices for teaching data literacy as part of social studies education. The author shows how social studies content and skills can enhance both data literacy and its importance in supporting students' historical thinking and civic engagement. Shreiner also provides a rationale for including data literacy in the social studies curriculum and highlights the special knowledge and skills social studies teachers offer in promoting a critical, humanistic form of data literacy. Recognizing that many social studies teachers feel poorly equipped to teach data literacy, this book offers practical advice, summaries of the benefits and challenges to students, guidance for incorporating data literacy across elementary and secondary grades, and strategies to help students analyze, use, and create data visualizations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBook Features: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eHelps social studies teachers and teacher educators understand the value of teaching data literacy.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHighlights the special role social studies teachers can play in supporting critical, humanistic data literacy.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSynthesizes research and scholarship on teaching data literacy in social studies.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides a suggested scope and sequence for incorporating data literacy into the social studies curriculum across grade levels.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers multiple ideas for resources and tools that can support data literacy instruction in social studies.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTamara L.
