13. “BIG DATA”
“BIG DATA” is not new for astronomy, nuclear science,
genome research
Genome research – to look for DNA footprints that
correlate with human diseases
Education BIG DATA research – to look for footprints that
correlate most effective pedagogy with individuals
eLearning makes data available for research
How big is BIG? Territory wide data ?
International education data interoperability
