Big data in education has the potential to disrupt existing systems through personalization, evidence-based decision making, and continuous innovation. However, it also poses threats such as privacy issues, oversimplification of learners, and reducing the role of teachers. Learning analytics uses data from online learning platforms to provide insights into learning processes. Examples from Tallinn University include an open educational resources platform and a tool for visualizing pedagogical scenarios. Policies are needed to ensure the ethical use of student data and learning analytics.

Generative AI for Teaching, Learning and AssessmentMike Sharples
AI is disrupting education. Students, teachers and academics can access software that writes essays, summarises scientific texts, produces lesson plans, engages in conversations, and drafts academic papers. These are already being embedded into office tools and will soon be interconnected into an AI-enhanced social network. I will introduce the capabilities and limitations of current generative AI and discuss how it is transforming education, including emerging policy. I will suggest new roles for AI in supporting teaching, learning and assessment. Rather than seeing AI solely as a challenge to traditional education, we can prepare students for a future where AI is a tool for creativity, to be operated with great care and awareness of its limitations.

Analytics Goes to College: Better Schooling Through Information Technology wi...bisg
The focus on the tremendous volume of information about target markets that can be gleaned through the use of powerful analytics technology obscures the reality that, much of the time, that information lacks predictive capacity, and can really only provide a very detailed retrospective analysis of behaviors of interest. Vince Kellen discusses the ways that his university has reorganized and deployed their IT resources to acquire better, more useful information -- and, more importantly, how that information can be immediately translated into decisive action.
Five short presentations from a panel session at the Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference 2015, on the topic of "Learning Analytics - European Perspectives", held at Marist College, Poughkeepsie on March 18th 2015.

European Perspectives on Learning Analytics: LAK15 LACE panelLACE Project
Panel presentation at Learning Analytics and Knowledge 2015 (LAK15) in Poughkeepsie, NY, USA by a team of speakers from the LACE project.
Since the emergence of learning analytics in North America, researchers and practitioners have worked to develop an international community. The organization of events such as SoLAR Flares and LASI Locals, as well as the move of LAK in 2013 from North America to Europe, has supported this aim. There are now thriving learning analytics groups in North American, Europe and Australia, with smaller pockets of activity emerging on other continents. Nevertheless, much of the work carried out outside these forums, or published in languages other than English, is still inaccessible to most people in the community. This panel, organized by Europe’s Learning Analytics Community Exchange (LACE) project, brings together researchers from five European countries to examine the field from European perspectives. In doing so, it will identify the benefits and challenges associated with sharing and developing practice across national boundaries.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Big data in education
1. Big Data in Education
Mart Laanpere, Ph.D.
Senior researcher
Centre for Educational Technology, Tallinn University
2. Disruptive change in education
• Disruptive innovation (Christensen): creates a new market and
value network and eventually disrupts an existing market and value
network, displacing established market leading firms, products, and
alliances
• Models of disruptive change:
• Napster, iTunes and Spotify disrupting the music industry
• Uber disrupting the taxi business
• Predicting disruptive change in education:
• De-schooling society (Ivan Illich, Seymour Papert)
• Steve Jobs: iPads will change schools
• The promise of MOOCs
• Big Data?
5. Two change processes in education
• Datafication: transformation of different aspects of education (such
as test scores, school inspection reports, or clickstream data from an
online course) into digital data
• Digitization: transition of diverse educational practices into software
code, it is most obvious in the ways that aspects of teaching and
learning are digitized as e-learning software products (Learning
Management Systems, student information systems, e-assessment
tools, interactive learning resources, educational games,
recommender systems etc)

• Philanthropic and charitable goals around supporting alternative
pedagogic approaches
• Emerging forms of scientific expertise such as that of psychology,
biology and neuroscience
• Practical knowledge of innovative practitioners in education
10. A vision of Data-Driven Education
• Personalization: Educators dynamically adjust instruction to accommodate
students’ individual strengths and weaknesses rather than continue to utilize a
mass production-style approach.
• Evidence-Based Learning: Teachers and administrators make decisions about how
to operate classrooms and schools informed by a wealth of data about individual
and aggregate student needs, from both their own students as well as those in
comparable schools across the nation ... rather than by intuition, tradition, and
bias.
• School Efficiency: Educators and administrators use rich insight from data to
explore the relationships between student achievement, teacher performance,
and administrative decisions to more effectively allocate resources.
• Continuous Innovation: Researchers, educators, parents, policymakers, tech
developers, and others can build valuable and widely available new education
products and services to uncover new insights, make more informed decisions,
and continuously improve the education system.
