The Experience
“We don’t have enough data….the sample size is too small”
-Moneyball

The Experience
The Data Challenge (Part 1)
We have Web Intelligence but are lacking the ability to create reports from our whole data set.
SAP( for example) = good daily reports but no ad hoc, no visualization no dashboards

The Experience
The Data Challenge (Part 2)
We are being asked to be wise stewards of state resources about a field that is brand new
The skills we are being asked to learn to do this right are in addition to all the other things we must know

The Experience
Observations for the BI Tenderfoot
Getting a common set of definitions is important

The Experience
Observations for the BI Tenderfoot
We are decent at collecting data but not at turning data into useful and timely information

The Experience
Observations for the BI Tenderfoot
Not one tool does everything (Even Moodle in the Analytics Area)
Even if you say you have a Data Warehouse you can only say you're doing Business Intelligence if you have tools to change data into useful information and get it to the appropriate person.

The Experience
Observations for the BI Tenderfoot
We need collect more data more rapidly and turn it into information
There is never enough resources allocated to education
The perfect is the enemy of the good
People matter more than technology

The Experience
Observations for the BI Tenderfoot
Premise options give more options and capabilities for customization than cloud options
This is all brand new, you need a data scientist but they are not common….yet
The only KPI that matters is user adoption

The Experience
Other Observations:100% BI utilization should be goal
Immediate need is still real-time Ad Hoc Reporting and analysis
Ethics in Analytics is virtually ignored
Whatever you do should be Data Source Agnostic
Take a broader view of what you are doing (not Just LMS)
Probably a tool kit rather than a tool

The Experience
So What do we need to do?Question 1: What are we going to measure?
Question 2: Broader View…..What are the relationships between all our data sources?◦ Moodle
◦ SIS
◦ Social Media
◦ Custom Apps

The Experience
What about Learning Analytics & Moodle?:Really happy to hear energy is being spent on this topic
Even happier to hear Analytics Ethics being discussed
