Additionally, Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston’s memoir Farewell to Manzanar, which details her experience in a Japanese American internment camp during World War II, is a […]
Our Common Online Data Analysis Platform (CODAP) engages learners in data science practices, including data analysis and visualization. But what does “visualization” mean to blind or low-vision (BLV) learners? A new National Science Foundation-funded project is using artificial intelligence (AI) to develop and research new tools for making data exploration accessible to BLV learners. Graphs—and […]
