Evidence¶

Fagerlund 2025¶

Fagerlund, J., Palsa, L., & Mertala, P. (2025). Exploration of domains of educational purpose in K-12 data literacy education research. Educational Research Review, 46, Article 100663. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.edurev.2024.100663

q2 · i? · review · r3

The review's interpretive analysis of the gaining-access-to-data theme (subsection 4.3.1) finds that acclimatizing students to data-centric tools can simultaneously empower them to make their own decisions, showing domain complementarity.

"While this theme involves both socialization (acclimatization) and subjectification (empowerment), it demonstrates how they may in fact complement rather than conflict each other."
