The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) conducts the Data Detectives Summer Camp in collaboration with the American Statistical Association, Bureau of Justice Statistics, Bureau of Labor Statistics, CDC Museum Disease Detectives Camp, University of Maryland Joint Program in Survey Methodology, University of Maryland Social Data Science Center, and the University of Maryland School of Public Health. Their newest partner is the National Center for Education Statistics.
The NCHS Data Detectives Camp is a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) summer camp that focuses on teaching statistics to rising 6th and 7th grade students. Camp activities cover statistical concepts to help teach kids to think like a data detective by asking the right questions, collecting needed information, analyzing the data and determining the answers.
The camp will take place August 21 – 25, 2023 at the NCHS headquarters in Hyattsville, Maryland. There is no fee for registering or attending the Camp.
