Learning Analytics: Dream, Nightmare, or Fairydust? From today's keynote at Ascilite 2011, here's the podcast plus the slides. I am grateful to Gary, Renee and everyone else at Ascilite for their understanding and flexibility, since after months of planning this trip, unfortunately I could not be there in person after my father passed away last weekend. For those of you who like to download and watch offline: podcast [Hi-Res version: 93.3Mb] + slides [PPTX/PDF] For detailed descriptions of work presented here, see other posts tagged learning analytics and the references below.

"Awards for Excellence in Learning Analytics: Submissions The LA SIG operates an Awards program recognising excellence in the practical application of LA to enhance learning and teaching. A key driver for the Awards program is to create and share resources about effective LA practices. We want to give a voice to all who are working with LA to improve learning and teaching - whatever the scale of their endeavours.  To this end, all presentations from Award applicants are available below for viewing. (Submissions closed on 11 September).  We believe these presentations will form an important resource library around the use of LA in tertiary education across Australasia and New Zealand. You may view the awards submission criteria and other background information on the awards in the SIG Awards Program Information (PDF) and to find out more about LA-SIG activities, go here."
