Learning Designer. Learning analytics report. Tivity data - delivering benefits from the data deluge. Activity data is the record of human actions in the online or physical world that can be captured by computer.
The analysis of such data leading to 'actionable insights' is broadly known as 'analytics' and is part of the bigger picture of corporate business intelligence. In global settings (such as Facebook), this data can become extremely large over time – hence the nickname of 'big data' – and is therefore associated with storage and management approaches such as data warehousing. This executive overview offers higher education decision-makers an introduction to the potential of activity data – what it is, how it can contribute to mission-critical objectives – and proposes how institutions may respond to the associated opportunities and challenges.
Should we care? In 2010, The Economist published its special report on managing information: data, data everywhere. Understanding your data. The issue Most commentators agree that over 90% of the data ever created has been generated in less than the past two years, and that trend is only set to increase.
Education-oriented organisations focus on retaining students, delivering effective learning experiences and delivering mandated reports on such activities. Today the bulk of this data derives from activity data - about what is actually done, rather than what someone has stated. What you can do. Learning Analytics A Literature Review.

During the BOLT project a number of smaller projects were completed in order to gleam learning points which would prove useful insights into the challenges faced around the embedding of Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) in an organisation.
Each of these projects and their key learning points are detailed below: Health and safety in agriculture This project identified key issues relating to: • The need to evaluate different software tools and gain competence in the required tools prior to commencing any project • The value of establishing a well-defined user persona to guide content creation. Writing for the media • The need for clearly defined contracts with identifiable outputs and clarity of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) when working with external parties • The importance of good planning for media asset creation.

Image by Jisc. All rights reserved. The normal course of a video production tends to separate into three discrete phases: pre-production (or planning), production (or shooting) and post production (primarily editing); the production phase is covered in depth in our video production infokit. The phases which incur the greatest costs are normally production and post-production, employing as they do most of the physical resources used in a project (travel, recording media, equipment, personnel). Planning a video production is much like planning any other activity that requires a degree of forethought. During the planning phase you will need to consider: 5.10 Accreditation pathways V6. Blended Learning Essentials - Blended learning in practice. Social media tips and tools. FutureLearn is a social learning environment at its heart.
To get the most out of it we recommend that you fill out your learner profile and add a photo so that other learners can get to know you a bit better. And did you know you can ‘follow’ other learners that you find interesting so you can find their comments more easily? There are also lots of other great social media services on the web that some educators might recommend you use to get more out of your course. Here are some tips and guides to help you get started.

The Strategy is currently being updated and will be published in Semester 1 2013-2014. The University of Leeds defines blended learning as"a considered and appropriate mixture of face-to-face interaction, carefully designed online course materials and tools, and enhanced contact with a wider distributed learning environment through relevant technologies. Opportunities are presented for developing communication and collaborative approaches. The effective integration of these elements provides exceptional and inspirational teaching in a research-led context. Students are provided with opportunities to develop as independent, inquisitive and confident learners at the cutting edge of their discipline.
