Data Literacy at the University of Mannheim
All information about the Mannheim Data Literacy (MaDaLi²) project at a glance.
Data literacy can be understood as as a “key competence of the 21st century” that enables individuals not only to collect and analyze data, but also to critically evaluate and interpret it in a meaningful way. This competence is essential for making informed decisions, whether it be in science, business, or everyday life. Against this background, the University of Mannheim is expanding its extracurricular curriculum, giving our students the opportunity to develop fundamental, practice-oriented data literacy skills.
