This event is the first of two events held every year to share the work of the student experience team at Jisc and offers opportunities for feedback and consultation on current activities.
Implementing a learning analytics system across all higher education institutions in Wales provides a model for the opportunities for such services at a national scale.
Phil Richards, Jisc's CIO, speaks at Future Edtech 2017 on the evidence base for learning analytics, including for non-traditional students, and gives delegates some early learnings from Jisc’s new national learning analytics service.
Data is sometimes seen as something cold and removed from the human element, but in reality, it is a window into that very humanity, and can form an essential foundation for keeping students on track.
How can higher education institutions (HEI) best embrace technology to benefit staff and students? A theme that emerged at Digifest 2019 was the need for humans and technology to support one another.
If data about struggling students is to be used in a way that supports their mental wellbeing rather than harms it, what kind of data do learners want to see and what actions do they want it to trigger? We find out from projects that have talked to their students to discover just that.
With Jisc’s learning analytics service going live last summer, we caught up with some of the people who are part of the community of practice shaping the service, to find out how implementation is going and what learning analytics is adding to their university.
"Institutions are bringing this data together into a central database, not just using it for learning analytics, but they are also very keen to make that data accessible and available for students to see" - Rob Wyn Jones, our senior data and analytics integrator, shares an update on learning analytics.
Our learning analytics service offers a series of rapid, flexible visualisations about students’ learning activities and about how the curriculum is functioning.
Universities and colleges are having to adapt their policies and processes to meet the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
