    Hello!

    I'm fairly new to the MED track, but have really gotten a lot out of the PDW and sessions I've attended and am looking forward to the 2015 conference.

    Is anyone interested in collaborating to put together a PDW session on "data-driven assignments" or a similar topic?

    One of my current projects is development of a semester-long project for undergraduate students in which they develop skills in locating, analyzing, and interpreting data. Most of the students in the course are in real estate development and health management. I would be interested in collaborating on a PDW session about some of the ways we teach students to work with data.

    If anyone happens to already be putting together a proposal for something similar, I'd love the opportunity to join you.

    Alternatively, if you have a related project or topic, please get in touch and perhaps a few of us can pull together a PDW proposal.
