Teach kids to be critical thinkers. They are going to challenge you, and that was honestly some of the best lessons I ever had were the ones where the students were like: I don't think you're right.
Have you ever wondered how data science can change the way kids see the world? In this episode of Toni TV, host Toni Lontis sits down with Dr. Linda McIver, the inspiring author of 'Raising Heretics: Teaching Kids to Change the World'. Dr. McIver, who founded the Australian Data Science Education Institute, is on a mission to transform education by making data science accessible and engaging for all students. Dr.
McIver shares her passion for teaching kids to think critically and challenge conventional wisdom. She discusses the real-world impact of authentic data science education and how it empowers students to tackle complex problems. Her insights are particularly relevant in an age where anti-science rhetoric is prevalent, and she emphasizes the importance of equipping young minds with the tools to question and understand the world around them.
This episode is a treasure trove for educators, parents, and anyone interested in the future of education. Dr. McIver's enthusiasm is contagious as she talks about her journey, her book, and her vision for a more scientifically literate society.
