The Ithaka S+R study Teaching with Data in the Social Sciences (TDSS) built on Ithaka's S+R's ongoing research program to investigate teaching practices and support needs across multiple disciplines within higher education. The goals were to understand teaching of foundational skills necessary for success in a data-driven world; how to help students achieve data literacy; how to facilitate finding datasets; and identifying tools to help students manipulate, understand, and visualize data. Twenty institutions contributed to the overall project. This collection contains project data from Washington University in St. Louis. The university research team conducted semi-structured interviews with 13 instructors who, at the time of study, taught with data to undergraduates in the social sciences (Anthropology, Psychology, Political Science, Sociology, History, Business, Economics).
