This presentation describes TeachingWithData.org, a collection of resources for faculty who want to include data in their undergraduate social science courses. The presentation was given at the 2010 Annual Meeting of the American Sociological Association (Atlanta) by John Paul DeWitt (SSDAN) and Lynette Hoelter (ICPSR)
The document discusses a reference model for learning analytics with four dimensions:
1) Data and environments - what data is collected from what sources
2) Stakeholders - who are the people involved (learners, teachers, institutions)
3) Objectives - why is the data being analyzed (understanding learning, optimizing environments)
4) Methods - how the data is analyzed (data mining, statistics, visualization)
The document reviews related fields like academic analytics, educational data mining, and personalized learning, and proposes that learning analytics draws upon methods from these areas.
The document summarizes bibliometric analyses of scientific publications from Japanese universities indexed in the ISI Web of Science from 1980-2013. It provides statistics on the total publications, top publishing universities/organizations, popular journals, research areas, collaborating countries, and prolific authors. The University of Tokyo is identified as the top publishing institution with over 198,000 publications. Physics and Chemistry were the most common research areas addressed. The United States was the most frequent collaborating country.
This document provides an overview of the statistical software IBM SPSS and its uses. It discusses SPSS's abilities in descriptive statistics, bivariate statistics, prediction, and identifying groups. The document also explores the basic use of SPSS, including how to enter data and define variable meanings. Finally, it examines the dataset "country.sav" that could be used for a class project, focusing on variables like GDP, life expectancy, and healthcare that reflect living standards across countries.
This document summarizes a systematic literature review of 40 empirical studies on learning analytics and educational data mining from 2008-2013. The review aimed to document applied research approaches, identify strengths and weaknesses, and suggest opportunities for future research. Four major directions of LA/EDM empirical research were identified: 1) predicting student performance, 2) understanding student behavior, 3) improving educational systems, and 4) developing analytic methods/tools. The results highlighted the added value of LA/EDM in improving learning and informed decision making, but also identified opportunities to explore new technologies and research questions.
Object Analysis and Design has emerged as the most practiced method for analysis and design of information system. An object is any thing of interest in the real world that is being modeled.

5 Challenges women may face in business and how to start to overcome them.Claudia Ferreira
The document summarizes statistics about female entrepreneurship globally and discusses some of the challenges women entrepreneurs face. It notes that 126 million women operate businesses in 67 economies worldwide, with 112 million employing at least one person. 12 million expect to grow their businesses significantly in the next 5 years. The document also discusses how women entrepreneurs contribute to economic growth and their communities, but may face barriers like lower self-confidence and challenges balancing family and work responsibilities. It provides advice on overcoming obstacles and championing other women in business.
