Global Correlations: Building a Shared Language of Data Literacy
From classrooms to ministries, educators around the world are mapping their national standards to the Chart-Ed Data Literacy Levels (DLL 1–16). Explore published correlations below — or add your nation's own.
Global Correlations: Building a Shared Language of Data Literacy
Data literacy is universal, yet every country expresses it through its own curriculum. The Chart-Ed Global Correlation Hub connects these diverse frameworks, linking local standards to the DLL spiral of empathy, ethics, and evidence. Each correlation table shows how a nation's competencies, benchmarks, or subjects align with the five DLL phases — Navigator → Explorer → Investigator → Advocate → Change Agent.
All correlations are open under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0, reviewed for accuracy under the Version-Control Policy (Section 5.2), and logged in the Code Correlation Register (Appendix D-5).
