Data Hack High is a one day student event that provides real-world examples that deepens understanding of data concepts and strengthens ability to apply these skills in meaningful contexts.
Data Hack High aims to:
Introduce students to data literacy, analytical and computational thinking through an engaging hackathon-style experience that develops problem-solving, collaboration and confidence in working with real-world datasets.
By involving external organisations we aim to:
equip NSW public school students with transferable data and digital skills that support senior secondary learning and future workforce participation
expose students to industry professionals and organisations working in data, technology and design, drawing on current expertise and real-world practice
inspire students by highlighting data science, software engineering and related fields as potential academic and career pathways
support, inform and motivate students to pursue post-school pathways aligned to their interests, strengths and emerging industry opportunities
Industry Partners will support the program as sponsors through:
1. Co-design (with Curriculum subject matter experts) a challenge for participating student teams to apply data analysis and visualisation to create a digital solution

2. Provide Industry expert data analysts to mentor student teams during the day either in person or online
