Using the Resource Library

When you first log into your account, you will arrive at the dashboard pictured below. Click on the Resource Library button to navigate to the lessons and datasets.

Resource types

There are three kinds of free-to-use resources in the Library:

• Ready-to-Teach lesson plans (with datasets)
• Data Nugget lesson plans (with datasets)
• Raw datasets (with full background and description, but no lesson plan)

Data Nuggets

These are based on datasets and lesson plans from our partner, Data Nuggets.

Searching for Lessons and Data

Once you are in the Resource Library, you can search for datasets by topic, subject, grade level and a free text search.
