Learners have the flexibility to progress through the 18 learning modules at their own pace with intentionally placed exercises to enhance instruction. We use a just-in-time strategy in the class, intentionally providing the information needed to accomplish tasks instead of over-saturating learners with details they have little chance of remembering. In order to support an inquiry-based approach, this class comes with access to two Virtual Office Hours and lifetime access to a private Slack channel exclusively for Data Studio learners such as yourself.
