Editor's Notes
- Please copy, adapt, photograph, video. Tell your friends!
- Hendrik Drachsler, Niall Sclater
- Learning analytics is on the Internet and the Internet has cats Data mining, business intelligence, academic analytics, learner analytics – focus here is on the learning, not the management and administration of learning
- Big Data in education More learning online. More sensors making offline, online.
- Many definitions. Slippery. I like ‘Changed capacity to act.’
- Stanford, Paulo Blikstein’s lab
- Laser cutter Followed instructions on the sheet Load the shape file, change, load plastic in to machine, cut shapes. Glue.
- Sensors: temperature, sound, light. Outputs: motors, LEDs, display Program board to control. Three groups. Input a signal, output a signal.
- Train – assess output, learned to use laser cutter. Balloon – harder. Softer skills. But multimodal data. Two visions of learning.
- Train learning
- If we’re making our lives easier, teachers’ lives easier, use the space for better learning
- If we’re making our lives easier, teachers’ lives easier, use the space for better learning
- Balloon learning
- Balloon learning
- Balloon learning
- Neither is better
- Robots are taking our jobs!
- There are loads of studies/papers/arguments that robots will take our jobs. Not just assembly line workers.
- What is hard to automate? Soc intel: dishwasher vs PR Creativity: legal clerk vs biologist Manipulation: telesales vs surgeon
- Balloon view is the future. Train is the pressure now. Must do it, so do it. But look up! Make space.
- Promised you some examples!
- Promised you some examples!
- Your school will have software with dashboards, with VLE/LMS data. Get hold of it! Dashboard as a metaphor
- Class 142 cab. Very simple
- Concorde cockpit. Much harder. Engineer’s block to the right. Don’t use the data just because you have it. Look out of the window!
- Don’t just use the data you’re given
- Cohort dispositional analytics. Building critical self-awareness. Correlations with success measures, but complex relationship. Learning power goes down over time in school!
- Do not reply. Computer. Will fail. Self-fulfilling. Have seen worse! At least it’s clear what it’s saying.
- Human relationship You are monitored vs I noticed
- M4 motorway – share your data with students
- Big thanks in small fonts
- Do both. Train and balloon.
- )
- This is Google’s self-driving car! If you can automate it, automate it, and use the time for balloon learning. Computer programming.
- M4 is a motorway that goes from London, England, all the way to South West Wales. Wales is a different country from England. Separate, like Scotland. Roads are managed by a different organisation. In England, surveillance. Who is looking at me? Why are they looking at me?
- In England, surveillance. Who is looking at me? Why are they looking at me? In Wales, cameras visible online. I can see when a junction is busy. Now I feel sorry for the person who has to watch all these cameras for traffic jams. Transparency helps. And Traffic England have now done the same!
