Girls Data Camp is a Los Angeles based summer camp designed to empower young women to embrace the power of math in today’s data-driven world.

Our camp was founded with the mission to encourage girls entering 7th, 8th and 9th grade math to discover the fascinating world of data. We believe that no matter what their interests are – whether it’s fashion, sports, robotics, photography, cooking, music – everything is driven by data! We show our campers how to make sense of data in a fun and approachable way, unlocking their interest and inspiration.

At Girls Data Camp, we create a welcoming and inclusive environment where young women can discover the endless possibilities of math. We help our campers realize that math is not just a tool, but a key to unlocking their full potential and making a difference in the world.

To kick off our first day, we’ll begin with introductions and an overview of the data cycle. We’ll discuss the importance of data and how it’s used in various industries. Then, we’ll dive into the basics of data, exploring what data are and the different types of data.

Next, we’ll move on to the practical side of things. We’ll walk through the tools we’ll be using throughout the week, including Google Forms and Google Sheets. Campers will learn how to use these tools to collect and organize data efficiently.

Later, we’ll introduce Jupyter Notebooks and Python. Campers will learn how to use these powerful tools to analyze and visualize data. Our experienced instructors will guide them through the basics of coding, so no prior experience is required.

By the end of the program, campers be fully equipped with the knowledge and tools needed to collect and analyze data like a pro.

Get ready for a week of exciting exploration and discovery in the world of data!
