Extended Abstract
Educators and advisors increasingly have access to near-real-time data about how well students are engaging with learning activities. What videos are they watching, are they participating in discussions, are their responses showing they're mastering the concepts? Technology-enriched learning provides a level of insights never before seen, and the ability to support students in ways we've only started to explore. How do we leverage the full potential of data to improve teaching and learning while upholding our commitment to student privacy and security, and ensuring positive impact on a student’s desired outcomes? In this session, we’ll address the following:
- What are the best methods for leveraging data to measure student engagement and success?
- How do we communicate with students the actions that need to be taken, based on what the data is telling us?
- How are other institutions leveraging data to advance and enrich learning?
