Keynote delivered by George Siemens (@gsiemens), Dragan Gasevic (@dgasevic), and Ryan Baker (@BakerEDMLab) at the 8th International Educational Data Mining Conference (EDM 2015) in Madrid, Spain on June 27, 2015
Educational data mining and learning analytics have to date largely focused on specific research questions that provide insight into granular interactions. These insights have bee abstracted to include the development of predictive models, intelligent tutors, and adaptive learning. While there are several domains where holistic or systems models have provided additional explanatory power, work around learning has not created holistic models with the level of concreteness or richness required. The need for both granular and integrated high-level view of learning is further influenced by distributed, life long, multi-spaced learning that today defines education. Drawing on social and knowledge graph theory, we propose the development of a Personal Learning Graph (PLeG) - an open and learner-owned profile that addresses cognitive, affective, and related elements that reflect what a learner knows, is able to do, and processes through which she learns best. This talk will introduce PLeG, detail required technical infrastructure, and articulate how it would interact with established learning software.

Abstract: "Assessment practice is at its most rich when assessment events are relevant, authentic and timely. Relevant assessment is that which is inextricably linked to learning outcomes designed to meet an agreed graduate profile (Biggs, 1999). Authentic assessment requires students to perform real-world tasks that demonstrate meaningful application of essential skills and knowledge. Timely assessment provides students with the opportunity to apply skills and knowledge gained as they learn. Teaching and learning in a blended format enables relevant, authentic and timely assessment that is greatly facilitated by the use of online tools, including self-grading, simulation and problem-based approaches, activities that require reflection and peer-review and the electronic delivery of assessment tasks. Drawing on Bloom’s extended taxonomy of cognitive development (Anderson, Krathwohl, & Bloom, 2001) and sociocultural theory (Vygotsky, 1934) this paper will demonstrate the value of designing and using e-assessments to enhance student learning. Examples will be explored that illustrate some of the benefits to teaching and learning offered by moving toward assessments based in flexible, mobile, collaborative learning technologies."

State and Directions of Learning Analytics Adoption (Second edition)Dragan Gasevic
The analysis of data collected from user interactions with educational and information technology has attracted much attention as a promising approach for advancing our understanding of the learning process. This promise motivated the emergence of the new field learning analytics and mobilized the education sector to embrace the use of data for decision-making. This talk will first introduce the field of learning analytics and touch on lessons learned from some well-known case studies. The talk will then identify critical challenges that require immediate attention in order for learning analytics to make a sustainable impact on learning, teaching, and decision making. The talk will conclude by discussing a set of milestones selected as critical for the maturation of the field of learning analytics. The most important take away from the talk will be that
- systemic approaches to the development and adoption of learning analytics are critical,
- multidisciplinary teams are necessary to unlock a full potential of learning analytics, and
- capacity development at institutional levels through the inclusion of diverse stakeholders is essential for full learning analytics adoption.
This is the second edition of the talk that previously gave under the same title on several occasions. The second edition reflects many developments happened in the field of learning analytics, especially those in the following two projects - http://he-analytics.com and http://sheilaproject.eu.

Writing Analytics for Epistemic Features of Student Writing #icls2016 talkSimon Knight
Talk presented at #ICLS2016 presented in Singapore. I discuss levels of description as sites of epistemic cognition focusing on writing and use of textual features to associate rubric scores with epistemic cognition.
My thanks to my collaborators (listed on the paper) particularly Laura Allen, who also generously let me adapt the later slides on NLP studies of writing.
Abstract: Literacy, encompassing the ability to produce written outputs from the reading of multiple sources, is a key learning goal. Selecting information, and evaluating and integrating claims from potentially competing documents is a complex literacy task. Prior research exploring differing behaviours and their association to constructs such as epistemic cognition has used ‘multiple document processing’ (MDP) tasks. Using this model, 270 paired participants, wrote a review of a document. Reports were assessed using a rubric associated with features of complex literacy behaviours. This paper focuses on the conceptual and empirical associations between those rubric-marks and textual features of the reports on a set of natural language processing (NLP) indicators. Findings indicate the potential of NLP indicators for providing feedback regarding the writing of such outputs, demonstrating clear relationships both across rubric facets and between rubric facets and specific NLP indicators.
Learning analytics as an academic research space has been growing in influence for nearly a decade. Campuses globally are deploying learning analytics to address a range of challenges including student dropout, poor engagement and targeted marketing as well as predict teaching and resource needs. As a field, learning analytics has advanced rapidly both as a research domain and as a practical on-campus activity to increase organizational use of data. In this presentation, Dr. George Siemens will explore both the research and the practice of analytics in education, focusing on the development of the Society for Learning Analytics, models for research and organizational data use and growing sophistication of data collection through psychophysiological approaches.

CINECA webinar slides: How to make training FAIRCINECAProject
There is a wealth of training content developed and delivered across the globe each year, there will be many similar sessions on similar topics all delivered to similar audiences. At the same time, there will be trainers looking for inspiration and ideas on how to approach new topics or on new ways to teach old topics; as well as trainees looking for materials to further their own knowledge. Many trainers (or lecturers/educators etc) do not share their materials, or if materials are shared they are not easily found or re-used by others.
During this webinar, we will give you some tips and suggestions on how you can make more of the training materials you produce and encourage others to do the same. FAIR is not just for data - we can make our training materials FAIR too. Join us to find out the benefits of sharing your FAIR materials and some simple ways you can make it easy for others to use your materials in their teaching, or as aids for individuals to learn more.
The “How FAIR are you” webinar series and hackathon aim at increasing and facilitating the uptake of FAIR approaches into software, training materials and cohort data, to facilitate responsible and ethical data and resource sharing and implementation of federated applications for data analysis.
The CINECA webinar series aims to discuss ways to address common challenges and share best practices in the field of cohort data analysis, as well as distribute CINECA project results. All CINECA webinars include an audience Q&A session during which attendees can ask questions and make suggestions. Please note that all webinars are recorded and available for posterior viewing.
This webinar took place on 18th March 2021 and is part of the CINECA webinar series.

Modelling openness: Developing the Digital Fluency course at OUTBrenda Mallinson
It is recognised that more than ‘literacy’ is needed in today’s academic environment in order to take full advantage of the affordances of using ICTs for the full range of teaching and learning, research, and administrative duties and blended modes of provision.
In order to address this issue, OUT, in collaboration with Saide’s OER Africa initiative, has conceptualised a course on ‘Digital Fluency’ to be provided as an Open Educational Resource (OER) and made available for ODeL provision.
The move from literacy to fluency encompasses effective and ethical online communication, critical interpretation, quality resource creation and curation, knowledge co-construction, and an understanding of using all of these abilities to open up education – with all of these becoming increasingly standard and effortless over time.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. its the learning in (e)Learning that is the most important
2. the quality of the content counts
3. technology promotes access and broadens reach
4. the most successful strategy is to blend digital with face to face
5. digital content can and should be continuously refined, and customised to an individual
learner’s needs
6. create or curate
7. an indexed hyperlinked repository promotes use, re-use, and re-purposing
8. digital teaching facilitates peer review, co-creation and curation of content
9. a digital platform can promote and facilitate active and collaborative learning
10. know the pedagogy and have technical know how, apply educational theory and instructional
design principles
11. be prepared for lots of work, much much more than the preparation required for a regular face
to face class, symposium or workshop (at least / up to 10 times more); the trade-off is that
digital content once created or curated can be re-used and re-purposed if accessible via a
hyperlinked indexed content repository
12. focus on creating and curating content in the most granular and reusable format
How to start
1. Do you (your department, your division, your institution) have a list of all educational
presentations at teaching sessions given to undergraduates, postgraduates, and for CME/CPD
over the last year?
2. Have you (your department, division and institution) kept a copy of all educational
presentations?
3. Is the list of presentations AND copy of the educational presentations available and
accessible?
4. If no to any of the questions above, consider starting to do this prospectively, and then
retrospectively
5. Then start selectively hyperlinking specific elements of the presentations, and making this
available, first internally on an intranet, then progressively on the internet
6. Starting with a list of presentations, and key take home or practice points is a useful, and safe
way to start
7. You can then share recent and authoritative articles and research papers, as well as practice
guidelines; and then progressively, key diagrams and illustrations (at all times maintaining
confidentiality, protecting privacy, respecting intellectual property, and following professional
and institutional standards and guidelines - i.e. always respect your patients, your students and
your colleagues)
