Why is Data Literacy Essential?
Data literacy can equip individuals with skills and knowledge to improvise in a tech and data-driven world. There
are countless reasons why data literacy is critical to an organisation. Some of these are:
● Data literacy enhances decision-making ability in individuals
based on evidence. Based on sources of data, emerging trends
and interpretations, individuals can make decisions that are
data-driven.
● Data literacy is able to cultivate critical thinking skills to
understand and explore data’s implications by questioning
assumptions, reaching logical conclusions, identifying patterns,
and evaluating evidence and data accuracy.
