SAMURAI Corporation Empowers Students with Data Science Training at Omiya High School
On November 2025, SAMURAI Corporation, based in Minato, Tokyo, commenced data science training for high school students at Saitama Omiya High School. This program aims to provide students with practical experience using Tableau in analyzing real-world data related to the ecology of Antarctic penguins.
Training Overview
The training revolves around the theme: Ecological Research of Antarctic Penguins using Tableau. Students engage with real datasets, including various factors such as the weight, beak size, flipper length, gender, habitat, and diet of thousands of penguins. Through this hands-on approach, students undergo an insightful analytical process, which includes data loading, visualization, analysis, and reshaping their inquiries for deeper insights.
Objectives of the Training
The training has outlined several key goals for participants:
1. Skill Acquisition: Students will learn to derive answers from data.
2. Experience with Data Analysis: Participants will go through the entire data analysis flow—loading, visualizing, analyzing, and re-evaluating inquiries.
3. Scientific Thinking and Decision-Making: They will hone their scientific reasoning and decision-making abilities.
Learning Benefits
The training emphasizes practical data analysis following real-world applications. By engaging with relatable topics such as penguin ecology, the program significantly boosts students' retention rates of what they learn.
Voices from Participants
Feedback from students highlights positive experiences:
- - “I felt anxious about what actual data analysis would entail, but thanks to the detailed explanations, I was able to learn in a fun, stress-free environment.”
- - “Even in a short time, the depth of the lessons was impressive; I really enjoyed it.”
