We know teachers need support with the Data Science element of the 7-10 Science Syllabuses, so we’ve developed an 8-part resource designed to make Data Science accessible, engaging, and curriculum-aligned for Stage 4 & 5 Science Classrooms.
Part one of the resource, Patterns in the Sky, is publicly available on the Science Teachers’ Association of NSW website here: https://stansw.asn.au/resource/data-science-series-1-patterns-in-the-sky/
This lesson, Patterns in the Sky, helps students:
• Tabulate and process data
• Extract meaning from their findings
• Apply data science skills within the Observing the Universe focus area.
• Strengthen Working Scientifically skills
All with Teacher Lesson Guides and Student Worksheets for implementation.
The remaining lessons will be released to STANSW members throughout December 2025, January and February 2026. Be sure to renew your membership or become a member to access them.
