This session will take a big picture view of ecological data literacy with a primary focus on how to harness the power of the LTER network to build ecological data literacy of students and to contribute to the body of research on this topic. We will present relevant insights from the literature and several LTER sites will share strategies and learning outcomes for engaging students with data. We will then facilitate a discussion in small groups to identify needs for additional idea sharing, professional development, assessment and/or research among the LTER network. This topic will continue to be explored in the session about new tools for student data exploration and analysis.
