Subaward Project

NNLM Region 5 - Data Engagement Award - Y2


The COVID Tracking Project (CTP) was a citizen-run, all volunteer organization that tracked the first year of the COVID pandemic. The data produced by the project are some of the most clean and well-documented datasets on the pandemic. This course-in-a-box includes datasets, metadata, annotations, and editorial content describing the methods and theories of the project. Using this curriculum, journalism students and public health communicators will learn methodologies of data collection, communication and transparency in community-science projects.
