The results will lead to \nbetter designed games and improved\n learning outcomes, empowering children, parents, caregivers and \neducators across the globe with insights into how young children learn \nthrough media and which approaches work best to help them build on \nfoundational learning skills. The 90-day Data Science\n Bowl competition will award winning participants with a share of \n$160,000 in cash prizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Research shows much of the most critical brain development in children takes place&nbsp;before they even reach kindergarten.  Child development experts indicate it is during these first five years  that children develop linguistic, cognitive, social, emotional, and  regulatory skills that predict their later functioning  in many domains. Yet early education approaches around the world vary  in quality, accessibility, technique and engagement, leading to  disparities in children\u2019s learning and development. Further, access to  effective early learning resources is critical, as  research demonstrates that high-quality educational media can help  support young learners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>\u201cEarly  childhood education is a pivotal point in a child\u2019s development that  can provide them with a profound advantage and set the foundation for  lifelong success,\u201d said  Dr. Josh Sullivan, senior vice president, Booz Allen Hamilton and  leader of the firm\u2019s analytics and AI business. \u201cFor the fifth annual  Data Science Bowl, we\u2019re excited to harness the collective power of  people around the world to uncover how children learn  and develop more beneficial and effective educational tools for  children.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The 2019 Data Science Bowl At-A-Glance:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The first five years  of a child\u2019s life are&nbsp;critical  to their development&nbsp;as  it\u2019s when they learn and cultivate linguistic, cognitive, social,  emotional and regulatory skills that predict their later functioning in  many  domains. Access to high-quality, effective early learning resources is  critical during the early childhood developmental period and supporting  education at an early age is also key for other long-term&nbsp;success  factors&nbsp;such as increased qualifications, employment, and earnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants will be provided  with anonymous gameplay data from the&nbsp;PBS  KIDS Measure Up!&nbsp;app,  which was developed as a part of the CPB-PBS Ready to Learn Initiative  with funding from the U.S. Department of Education. They will be tasked  with creating algorithms that utilize information about how players use  the app to determine what they know and are learning from the  experience, in order to discover important relationships between their  engagement with educational media and learning. The  insights gleaned from these solutions will help PBS KIDS and other  organizations create new solutions, content and products that help  ensure each and every user has the best chance to learn important  skills, helping improve childhood learning access and achievement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> PBS  KIDS is committed to  creating a safe and secure environment that family members of all ages  can enjoy. The PBS KIDS Measure Up! app does not collect any personally  identifying information, such as name or location. All of the data used  in the competition is anonymous.
