Open large-scale datasets (LSDS) and data visualization technologies are new cultural tools that have potential to inform public dialogue learning about important socioeconomic scientific matters, particularly if the is used consider both personal shared experiences. This paper reports on a design study in which diverse middle high school youth free summer workshop at an urban library were asked model their family geobiographies, or migration stories, with LSDS.

We present a micro-analysis of youth interactions with large complex, socioeconomic datasets and data visualization tools. Middle high school used georeferenced tools to assemble models that their family migration histories in relation larger trends summer program. Using screen-capture video recordings, field notes, artifacts, we analyzed youth's step-by-step decision-making interaction interfaces wrangling, which define as the practices for selecting, interpreting, integrating order build...
Open large-scale data sets (LSDS; [4]) and visualization tools have opened a new design space for youth family collaborative learning. Using corpus of video-recorded interviews, we examine how parents together explore their personal migration histories---their geobiographies---and broader socioeconomic, historical trends using dynamic tools. We introduce the Family Alignment Models Stories (FAMS) process to describe parent-child interactions with LSDS, through cycles aligning narratives...
