Name

Deconstructing Power: Using Data in the Classroom

Description

Data shapes our world. W. E. B. Du Bois’ pioneering data visualizations —currently on display in the exhibition Deconstructing Power: W. E. B. Du Bois at the 1900 World’s Fair —use shape, line, and color to showcase the success Black Americans had achieved despite facing pervasive racism in the United States and the global community.  

Educators, join us to discover how Du Bois and the work of other data storytellers can help our students translate complex facts and figures into powerful imagery that can help them better understand themselves and their communities. Speakers will include curator Christina L. De León and members of the museum’s Learning team.  

Recommended for educators of all disciplines in grades 5-12.
