“Over the last few years, I have searched for ways to incorporate data analysis into my senior level Anatomy and Physiology course.  Stumbling across Tuva was one of my favorite finds of the year.  

This year, my classes were able to analyze the use of vaccines in society and support their claims of efficacy with evidence obtained from Tuva.  They could clearly see the correlation between vaccination rate and disease.  They also discovered an outlier in the data which generated engaging class discussions and interesting perspective on disease, society, and income.  

Students need to be able to manipulate data, extrapolate information, and make informed decisions in order to develop evidence based conclusions in science. TuvaLab gives educators the ability to provide this to our learners with its user friendly interface and customization.”
