What is the intelligent campus?
»There has been plenty of hype over artificial intelligence
and the internet of things.
»We believe it may be time to put aside the cynicism that
this kind of hype generates and look seriously at how we
can take advantage of these emerging technologies to
improve the student experience, research and the
management of our campuses.

The intelligent campus
»We’re working on ways to improve the student
experience by capturing and analysing the many kinds of
data that can be collected across university and college
campuses.
»The intelligent campus project is one of five new ideas to
emerge from our co-design consultations with members
and other stakeholders, who have asked us to kick off
research into using data to inform future campus
developments.

What are we doing?
13/04/2018
What are we doing?
»This research is developing alongside our effective
learning analytics project and our work to build a
learning analytics service.
»At the core of the learning analytics service is the
Learning Data Hub (formerly called the Learning Records
Warehouse) where academic and engagement data is
collected, stored and processed.
11
What are we doing?
»We’ll extend the Learning Data Hub to enable data to be
gathered in from physical places (movement trackers,
heat and CO2 sensors, for example) and from systems
that record and monitor space and equipment usage,
timetabling and other activities.
»By analysing when and how rooms are used organisations
will be able to make smarter, more effective use of
learning spaces and other facilities across campus and to
improve curriculum design and delivery.

The intelligent campus
Why does this matter?
13/04/2018
Why does this matter?
»Making timely interventions to ensure that the best
available spaces are being used for each session will
enable students to learn more effectively and ensure that
the organisation is running efficiently – but this is only
the start.
»Longer term the possibilities for the intelligent campus
project are practically limitless.
14
Why does this matter?
»Our project aims to find effective ways to use data
gathered from the physical estate and combine it with
learning and student data from library systems, the virtual
learning environment (VLE) and even on-site cafes and
bars to:
› Give students a richer experience of learning and teaching so
they can achieve higher grades
› Enable students to optimise the comfort and convenience of
their physical environment
15
Why does this matter?
»Further down the line data from an intelligent campus
could help students to:
› Navigate their way around the site
› Find appropriate pastoral or other support
› Share information about events
› Meet up to socialise or work collaboratively
»Supporting students in these practical ways will help
them settle in more quickly and learn better.
16
Why does this matter?
»An intelligent campus could also enable organisations to
reduce their environmental impact by monitoring and
managing energy use in real time, to streamline waste
management, to move supplies around site more
efficiently…
»…the list of potential benefits goes on.

The intelligent campus
How will we do it?
13/04/2018
How will we do it?
»It’s a long-term project, not least because the necessary
tools and infrastructure are often not in place within
colleges and universities. Smart buildings are expensive
and it takes time to build (or retrofit) them.
»First, we need to agree with members on the priority
areas that they want us to focus on, so we’re developing
use cases.
19
How will we do it?
»We are working on a toolkit to explain how and when
members might implement the technologies and suggest how
to procure the necessary equipment.
»We’ll provide advice and guidance on implementing
intelligent campuses and on how to structure data for the
Learning Data Hub.
»We will develop information on the ethical issues surrounding
gathering, storing and using personal data, including our code
of practice for learning analytics.
»We’ll create analytics algorithms so the tools are available
when members are ready to use them.

Editor's Notes

  • #4 Smart Campus Digital Campus So what is the Intelligent Campus Analytics Algorithms Learning from behaviours Interventions Timely Feedback loop Challenge Data structure and definitions.  Maps Space utilisation Learning space description Movement and tracking data Sensors Temperature Humidity CO2 levels Timetabling Fitness Apps Mobile Apps CCTV IoT Smart buildings RFID Tracking Wi-Fi Tracking Autonomous vehicles
  • #9 So what is the Intelligent Campus Analytics Algorithms Learning from behaviours Interventions Timely Feedback loop Challenge Data structure and definitions. 
  • #25 Can we create an intelligent estate that increases space utilisation, increased room efficiency, allows for intelligent timetabling, reduces energy costs. Universities and colleges have large numbers of buildings of varying ages and conditions, spread over a wide geographic area, sometimes multiple campuses. Managing energy, waste and resources efficiently is important for a number of reasons, including financial pressures, environmental principles and regulations, and improved working conditions for campus users.
  • #26 Most universities and colleges provide good quality traditional campus maps on paper and electronically, however, these could be hugely enhanced using the technology and data that is increasingly available. Combining this data with smartphone apps and electronic signage will improve the experience of campus users. Could we make the campus easier and smarter for students?
  • #27 If the spaces we use for teaching and learning could speak to us, what would they say? The spaces across colleges and universities are core to teaching and learning. Are we using them effectively to enhance and enrich the learning journey? By analysing when and how rooms are used organisations will be able to make smarter, more effective use of learning spaces and other facilities across campus and to improve curriculum design and delivery.
  • #28 Across universities and colleges are empty offices and work spaces, however there are also complaints from staff about lack of space, access and collaborative spaces. Meeting rooms are usually constantly booked. With an increase in blended learning, online delivery and a need to work smarter, could we gather information on what kinds of work spaces staff require, and deliver the right kinds of environments at the right time?
  • #29 It could be possible for researchers to leave it to their apparatus to collect data about the results that have been generated, then make an operational and environmental report on their status and activities during the experiment. This information could be automatically organised and published to an electronic laboratory notebook, giving fully structured data and metadata to other researchers and apparatus who can use the information for validation, reproducibility and further research.
  • #30 Can we take the physical campus and make it porous and extend it into the wider city. Connect with city wide services such as transportation, health, wellbeing. Universities and colleges will increasingly offer tailored, and personalised, student apps for smartphones that are informed by the intelligent campus. These will communicate with the smart city and the data it provides, including travel, leisure and wellbeing information.
