Alan Duffy talks Data Literacy and Astronomy. “We are so keen to get into problem solving mode and we don’t spend enough considered time checking and cleaning the data, because that’s not as much fun as training a machine learning algorithm and seeing what it comes out with. “
This was such a treat to record. Talking with Alan about how we teach Data Science and Data Literacy, and what goes wrong when we play with data.
