The ever-increasing accessibility of astronomical data has tremendous potential for supporting powerful science learning. In this interactive case-study and panel session, participants explored several different space telescope projects (including NASA's Great Observatories) that have created educational materials and programs that enable student-driven investigations by providing access to professional science data. Participants examined the attributes of the various programs including strategies used to facilitate learning from data; common challenges faced by developers; and lessons learned. Small group discussions led to the identification of key insights and unresolved questions regarding the growing number of projects that aim to engage learners with ``real'' astronomical data.
