Inaugural online DataCamp launches first Pacific-wide STEM learning community
Posted on
An online data analytics course held in November brought together students from Hawai‘i and the Pacific region to work together on projects in real time, launching a network of future indigenous data scientists. Organizers say this broad reach is very encouraging given current pandemic restrictions in educational settings.
The inaugural DataCamp was supported through the Islands of Opportunity Alliance (IOA), a network of higher education institutions from Hawai‘i and 10 other alliance partners located throughout the U.S.-affiliated Pacific. The program, funded by the National Science Foundation, is part of the LSAMP program the Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation which has a mission to expand access to careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields for underrepresented populations.
