Abstract
Data science represents a unique opportunity to motivate students from different academic backgrounds to learn statistics and apply it to ethical issues. Evidence of the benefits of teaching statistics through the lens of data science was found during the recent Ethical Data Science summer course at the University of North Carolina Charlotte during the Summer Ventures in Science and Math (SVSM) program. The course provided high school students with a comprehensive understanding of data science concepts while emphasizing the ethical considerations surrounding data use and its impact on society. The students engaged in analyzing datasets related to important social issues. This article reports the insights collected from the course and describes the impact of using data science to teach statistics.
