Workshop organised by Association of Learning Technology (ALT): improving provision and services for learners by aggregating and using ‘learner behaviour data’
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008ALT is organising the following workshop where the results of the TILE projected will be presented and discussed:-
Sitting on a gold mine” - improving provision and services for learners by aggregating and using ‘learner behaviour data’ It will be hosted at JISC’s London Office (Brettenham House ( South Entrance), 5 Lancaster Place, London) on- Friday 12 December 1000 for 1030 till 1500. The JISC TILE project has been investigating existing and potential Web 2.0 services linked to UK HE libraries. Detailed work in the areas of ‘creating context’ and ‘enabling contribution’ has suggested opportunities for cross-institution aggregation of learner behaviour data, potentially available from not only library but also learning and repository systems. We hope that learning technologists, librarians and others with an interest in the aggregation and use of ‘learners like me’ data will join in this workshop to explore the potential of behaviour data to enhance provision.
A booking form and a fuller description for this workshop is available from ALT. A briefing paper will be issued to participants prior to the event, and an article flowing from the event will appear in the January or April issues of the ALT Newsletter.
