As an educator, you have challenges:
-
Exposing your students to a wide variety of modern methods and approaches that they can continue using after they graduate.
-
Wanting more than what your current data analysis tool provides - in terms of both software and written material about leading edge methods - to make it easy to ramp up your courses.
-
To trade between syntactic complexities of code-based tools and in-depth coverage of the analytics knowledge (concepts, theories, and best practices).
With KNIME, you gain access to:
-
A modern open data science platform with a visual workflow editor that lets your students focus on learning the concepts and methods.
-
Software that is open source and free. No limitations on number of students, methods, data, or operating systems. And your students can keep it forever with no signup required.
-
An extremely wide range of data access and processing functions, modeling tools, and techniques - many based on leading open-source projects - and all within one platform.
-
A strong and active community, providing support and freely available teaching materials and examples. See what they are doing here.
