Education, Finance, Public Safety, and Global Development, as well as
the following new data innovation efforts:

Harness new techniques in big data and learning analytics to help
students master core academic subjects such as math and science.

Digital Tools for the Smithsonian

Develop new ways for the Smithsonian Institution to engage in the
historic effort to make its unparalleled collections in science,
history, art, and culture more open and available to the American
public – from researchers to schoolchildren and everyone in between.
