Keynote Speakers
Open for all? Technology serving the higher education mission
Description:
This presentation will review current trends in ICTs in higher education, considering research as well as teaching and learning and bearing in mind how these trends are playing out in different contexts and serving different interests.
Academic Collaboration Spaces, Libraries and Repositories: What kind of integration?
Description:
A panel conversation around the connection of libraries, repositories and academic collaboration spaces - what they are, and what they should be.
Sensemaking with Learning Analytics: The need for openness
Description:
It's a data-centric world. Analytics are increasingly used to make sense of large (and growing) quantities of data. For educators and researchers, openness and transparency of both data and analytics methods is important. The need for openness is challenged by numerous vendors who make claims about the insight into learning that their platform can provide, but do not make the data used or the process explicit. This presentation will introduce the Open Learning Analytics initiative and detail opportunities for colleges and universities to take control of their own data and begin partnering with advocates for open data, technology, and analytics.
