Data Literacy is the second seed domain because it is career-facing and does not map neatly onto a school subject. It shows how Open Degree handles outcomes that employers care about but that no state standard defines.

The current chain runs from reading a chart, through cleaning a small dataset, to summarizing and communicating findings.
