Reproducibility is a cornerstone of scientific research. Data science is not an exception. In recent years scientists were concerned about a large number of irreproducible studies. Such reproducibility crisis in science could severely undermine public trust in science and science-based public policy. Recent efforts to promote reproducible research mainly focused on matured scientists and much less on student training. In this study, we conducted action research on students in data science to evaluate to what extent students are ready for communicating reproducible data analysis. The results show that although two-thirds of the students claimed they were able to reproduce results in peer reports, only one-third of reports provided all necessary information for replication. The actual replication results also include conflicting claims; some lacked comparisons of original and replication results, indicating that some students did not share a consistent understanding of what reproducibility means and how to report replication results. The findings suggest that more training is needed to help data science students communicating reproducible data analysis.

The COVID-19 global pandemic has required everyone to make sense of data about community spread, levels of risk, and vaccine efficacy. Yet research shows that students are underprepared in data literacy. Tanya LaMar and Jo Boaler argue that data science education provides an opportunity to address this problem while providing much needed updates to the current mathematics curriculum. The integration of data science can provide a more equitable mathematics pipeline than the calculus-focused pathway that has excluded most students from a future in mathematics. Through data science, students can learn to answer questions that are relevant to their lives and communities, to be critical consumers of the data that surround them every day, and to wield the power of data analysis.

Cyberstalking is behavior that leads to repeated invasion of one's privacy by electronic mail or computer-based communication with a view to controlling, coercing, intimidating, harassing, or threatening. The purpose of this study is to describe the understanding of forensic science students about the concept of cyberstalking; the object criteria of this study are forensic science students who are still active and have taken cybercrime courses. This research method uses descriptive quantitative. Subjects in this study were obtained through purposive sampling with a total of 36 students. The technique of collecting research data is by distributing closed questionnaires. Research data analysis technique is a descriptive analysis technique, describing data obtained using tables and graphs. The results of this study indicate that forensic science students already have the correct perception of cyberstalking. The majority of students can distinguish statements with indications of cyberstalking and not cyberstalking.

This is a self-archived version of an article published in Collaborative Librarianship. The content of this article is not different from what is in the journal (found here: http://digitalcommons.du.edu/collaborativelibrarianship/vol9/iss2/4)Recommended CitationSteeves, Vicky (2017) "Reproducibility Librarianship," Collaborative Librarianship: Vol. 9 : Iss. 2 , Article 4. Available at: https://digitalcommons.du.edu/collaborativelibrarianship/vol9/iss2/4Over the past few years, research reproducibility has been increasingly highlighted as a multifaceted challenge across many disciplines. There are socio-cultural obstacles as well as a constantly changing technical landscape that make replicating and reproducing research extremely difficult. Researchers face challenges in reproducing research across different operating systems and different versions of software, to name just a few of the many technical barriers. The prioritization of citation counts and journal prestige has undermined incentives to make research reproducible.While libraries have been building support around research data management and digital scholarship, reproducibility is an emerging area that has yet to be systematically addressed. To respond to this, New York University (NYU) created the position of Librarian for Research Data Management and Reproducibility (RDM & R), a dual appointment between the Center for Data Science (CDS) and the Division of Libraries. This report will outline the role of the RDM & R librarian, paying close attention to the collaboration between the CDS and Libraries to bring reproducible research practices into the norm.

Over the last three decades data has become ubiquitous and cheap. This transition has accelerated over the last five years and training in statistics, machine learning, and data analysis have struggled to keep up. In April 2014 we launched a program of nine courses, the Johns Hopkins Data Science Specialization, which has now had more than 4 million enrollments over the past three years. Here the program is described and compared to both standard and more recently developed data science curricula. We show that novel pedagogical and administrative decisions introduced in our program are now standard in online data science programs. The impact of the Data Science Specialization on data science education in the US is also discussed. Finally we conclude with some thoughts about the future of data science education in a data democratized world.

The purpose of this study is to improve the anti-corruption behavior of students of the Informatics Engineering Study Program at the Universitas PGRI Madiun through the internalization of anti-corruption values ??with the Nampe Model. The research was Classroom Action Research. Data were collected qualitatively by using observation, tests, and non-tests, while the data analysis used descriptive statistics. Based on the research carried out for two cycles, it was found that the anti-corruption behavior of students increased after internalizing the anti-corruption values ??with the Nampe Model. This increase is shown by the assessment of anti-corruption behavior in pre-cycle at 30.4%, increased to 62.2% in cycle 1 and at 78.2% in cycle 2. The average value of all domains also increases, such as; (a) affective domain in pre-cycle at 59.1, cycle 1 at 65.5, and cycle 2 at 75.5 (b) cognitive domain in pre-cycle at 78.9, cycle 1 at 82.4, cycle 2 at 85, 4, (c) psychomotor domain in pre-cycle at 62.44, cycle 1 at 66, cycle 2 at 75.6. The increase in anti-corruption behavior is also shown by the average score of the anti-corruption component in pre-cycle at 62.4, cycle 1 at 66.4, and cycle 2 at 77.1.

This study aims to determine the development of children's creativity through constructive play activities using media blocks. Constructive play is a form of game by using physical objects to build or create things. This game occurs when children engage in a creation or construction of a product or a problem solving of their own creation. This research is a Classroom Action Research (PTK) or Classroom Action Research. This study was conducted in two cycles. Subjects in this study were group A semester II of Kindergarten Alifea academic year 2016/2017, as many as 13 children (5 women and 8 men) with the aspect that is assessed that is participation, attention, independence, creativity and ability to tell. Data creativity of children in constructive play with media beam collected by using the method of observation with the instrument in the form of observation format sheet. Research data were obtained and analyzed qualitatively. Based on the results of data analysis obtained is on the first cycle of 46.1%, Cycle II obtained data of 81.5% So there is an increase in creativity development from cycle I to cycle II of 35.4%
