Abstract: Working with complex data is one of the important updates to the 2014 ASA Curriculum Guidelines for Undergraduate Programs in Statistical Science. Infusing “authentic data experiences” within courses allow students opportunities to learn and practice data skills as they prepare a dataset for analysis. While more modest in scope than a senior-level culminating experience, authentic data experiences provide an opportunity to demonstrate connections between data skills and statistical skills. The result is more practice of data skills for undergraduate statisticians.[Received November 2014. Revised July 2015.]
