Exciting news: CourseKata's director of research, Dr. Claudia Sutter, is heading a symposium at the International Conference on Motivation & Emotion (ICM) at the University of Bern on Aug 30! It's gonna be an international perspective on the "Situational Nature of Motivation and Emotion in Education." Don't miss this insightful panel!

Join our Fall 2024 Study Group to dive deep into teaching CourseKata Statistics and Data Science. Our study groups meet once a week via Zoom, providing a collaborative environment to explore the first 6 chapters of course content as a student would. Series I is designed for anyone who has never taught with CourseKata before and is friendly even for folks that have never used R coding in statistics. Come study with us! 📅 Dates: Sept 10 - Nov 5, 2024 🕒 Time: Tuesdays, 4-5pm PT 🔗 Registration link: https://hubs.li/Q02KHX9Y0

Exciting news from CourseKata and UVA's Motivate Lab! Over a 10-week intro stats course, we intensively measured students' beliefs about their ability to succeed and the value of the course. This study revealed that these beliefs are highly dynamic and shaped by the learning context. Notably, motivation experienced within specific chapters (i.e., situational motivation) more strongly predicted performance for students from racially marginalized groups than for non-racially marginalized groups. These findings emphasize the importance of designing context-relevant interventions to create equitable and supportive learning environments for all students. #Education #Equity #Motivation #Statistics #EdResearch https://hubs.ly/Q02KwCgP0

🚀 UCLA’s Prof. Josh Samani’s new CourseKata physics materials are a game changer! Previously only 8% of students read most of the textbook... this soared to 85% with the new textbook. 📚✨ See how tailored content and embedded questions make a huge impact! Read more here: https://hubs.li/Q02JYt5-0

At CourseKata, we recently received a heartwarming message from a UCLA student who shared how our research-driven approach transformed their learning experience. Check out the paper referenced here: https://hubs.li/Q02JtgHY0 #ResearchDriven #StudentSuccess #ImprovementScience

Over 9,000 high school students from hundreds of different schools took on our 2024 After-the-AP Data Science Challenge! Made possible through a collaboration between CourseKata, Skew The Script, Data Science 4 Everyone, and the North Carolina State University Data Science Academy, these dedicated students showcased their creativity by developing predictive models to forecast student loan default rates – a highly relevant topic for soon-to-be graduates. Powered by CKHub, Jupyter hubs made easy for education, students fired up their notebooks, learned to code, and applied their mathematical skills to create unique models.
