Information on the Project

In the Mannheim Data Literacy (MaDaLi²) project, learning offerings on the topic of Data Literacy were developed from 2024 to 2025. The offerings were created by an interdisciplinary team consisting of staff members from the Teaching and Learning Center (ZLL), the University Library (UB), and the chairs of Psycholinguistics, Digital Communication (School of Humanities), and Quantitative Marketing (Business School). The project is now being continued by the ZLL.
