What can data science add to statistics education?

Read Original

The article critiques traditional, formula-focused statistics education, contrasting it with the potential of data science. It uses poetic language to highlight how current teaching often focuses on rote memorization of tests, leaving students disengaged and lacking context, while powerful computing tools go unused. It advocates for an education that leverages modern technology to ask real-world questions.
