What is big data and what does it have to do with you? Have you watched videos online today? Did you post photographs on social media? Did you upload your English essay to Google docs? All of these are questions about data! In Big Data: Information in the Digital World with Science Activities for Kids, kids ages 9 to 12 explore the definition of data and learn how essential it is to our everyday lives.
