STAT2GAMES: MAKING DATA DRIVEN DECISIONS
May 2019 - December 2019 | Grinnell College, IA
Programming and Research component
Designed and developed an inquiry-based online educational game that simulates data-based decision making embedded in a research-like experience to be used in undergraduate courses that incorporate a research component as well as statistical and data science concepts not easily addressed in traditional textbooks. Development was done on the Unity tech stack in C#. The project was part of the National Science Foundation grant to better enable students to think with data, build and evaluate a variety of statistical models, and better communicate nuanced statistical ideas. Game link is included below.
Presentation and Publication component
Submitted 2 electronic poster presentations at eCOTS (Electronic Conference On Teaching Statistics) in May of 2020.
GLIMMER LABS
May 2018 - August 2019 | Grinnell College, IA
Programming and Research component
Developed and implemented curricula for three one-week long summer camps with the purpose of increasing self-efficacy and inclusion in the field of technology via early exposure under the theme of “Coding for Social Good and Beyond”: Craft of Code (taught with block-based languages: TurtleStitch, BeetleBlocks, and Scratch), Data Science for Social Good (BBC micro:bits and Python), and Language and Code (HTML, CSS, and Scheme).
Presentation and Publication component
Co-authored the paper; A Middle-School Camp Emphasizing Data Science and Computing for Social Good. This paper was submitted and accepted to SIGCSE 2019.
Research findings were presented at The SIGCSE Technical Symposium, the largest computing education conference worldwide organized by ACM.
Presented the poster “Coding for Social Good and Beyond” at Grinnell College Family Weekend as part of Glimmer Labs (Grinnell Laboratory for the Interactive Multimedia Experimentation and Research).
LOCAL FOODS CONNECTION
August 2018 - January 2019 | Grinnell College, IA
Programming and Research component
Worked on creating a site for a Grinnell farm directory service for the local community area. The site contains basic information on farms that are connected to the Local Food Connection Organization. The goal of the app is to allow user to easily search for Grinnell's sustainable food system.
Presentation and Publication component
The application is being temporarily staged on Heroku. The projects source code lives in the following Github repository: https://github.com/CSC322-Grinnell/LFC_Features.git. The staging app is linked below.
REPOSITORIES AND DATABASES
Side project
Programming and Research component
Created an application that reads off of a given CSV file and proceeds to write relevant information into a database. Information not written to the database is in turn written to a CSV file containing data entries that did not satisfy the requirements necessary to be added to the aforementioned database.
Presentation and Publication component
The applications source code and program instructions are housed in the following GitHub repository.
