From an analytics product review…

“Some have tried to argue that
this technology doesn't work out
cost effectively when compared to
conventional tests... but this
misses a huge point. More often
than not, we test after the event
and discover the problem — but
this is too late..”

How is your aquatic ecosystem?
“This means that the keeper can be notified before water
conditions directly harm the fish—an assured outcome of
predictive software that lets you know if it looks like the
pH is due to drop, or the temperature is on its way up.

This way, it’s a real fish saver, as
opposed to a forensic examiner,
post-wipeout.”
(From a review of Seneye, in a hobbyist magazine)

How is your learning ecosystem?
This means that the teacher can be notified before
learning conditions directly harm the students — an
assured outcome of predictive software that lets you
know if it looks like engagement is due to drop, or
distraction is on its way up.

This way, it’s a real student saver,
as opposed to a forensic
examiner, post-wipeout.

Why do dispositions matter?
“Knowledge of methods alone
will not suffice: there must

be the desire, the will,
to employ them. This desire is
an affair of personal

disposition.”
John Dewey
Dewey, J. How We Think: A Restatement of the Relation of Reflective Thinking to the Educative
Process. Heath and Co, Boston, 1933

64
Why do dispositions matter?
“In the growth mindset, people believe
that their talents and abilities can be
developed through passion,
education, and persistence …

It’s about a commitment to …
taking informed risks …
surrounding yourself with
people who will challenge you
to grow”
Carol Dweck
Interview with Carol Dweck:
http://interviewscoertvisser.blogspot.co.uk/2007/11/interview-with-carol-dweck_4897.html

65
Why do dispositions matter?
“We’re looking at the profiles of
what it means to be effective in the
21st century. […] Resilience will
be the defining concept. When
challenged and bent, you learn and
bounce back stronger.”
“Dispositions are now at least as

important as Knowledge and
Skills. …They cannot be taught.
They can only be cultivated.”
John Seely Brown
US Dept. of Educ. http://reimaginingeducation.org conference (May 28, 2013)
Dispositions clip: http://www.c-spanvideo.org/clip/4457327
Whole talk: http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/SecD

66
Why do dispositions matter?
“It’s more than knowledge and skills.

For the innovation economy,
dispositions come into play:
readiness to collaborate;
attention to multiple
perspectives; initiative;
persistence; curiosity.
The purpose of learning in the 21st century
is not to recite inert knowledge but to

transform it.
It’s time to change the subject.”

signifying learning?

(you can invent future
technologies if need)

What analytical tools
could be used to find
such patterns?

How to render the analytics,
for whom, and will they
understand them? 92
The Wal-Martification of education?

“data narrowness”
“instrumental learning”
“students with no curiosity”

“The basic question is not
what can we measure?
The basic question is
what does a good
education look like?
Big questions.

  • 64. Why do dispositions matter? “Knowledge of methods alone will not suffice: there must be the desire, the will, to employ them. This desire is an affair of personal disposition.” John Dewey Dewey, J. How We Think: A Restatement of the Relation of Reflective Thinking to the Educative Process. Heath and Co, Boston, 1933 64
  • 65. Why do dispositions matter? “In the growth mindset, people believe that their talents and abilities can be developed through passion, education, and persistence … It’s about a commitment to … taking informed risks … surrounding yourself with people who will challenge you to grow” Carol Dweck Interview with Carol Dweck: http://interviewscoertvisser.blogspot.co.uk/2007/11/interview-with-carol-dweck_4897.html 65
  • 66. Why do dispositions matter? “We’re looking at the profiles of what it means to be effective in the 21st century. […] Resilience will be the defining concept. When challenged and bent, you learn and bounce back stronger.” “Dispositions are now at least as important as Knowledge and Skills. …They cannot be taught. They can only be cultivated.” John Seely Brown US Dept. of Educ. http://reimaginingeducation.org conference (May 28, 2013) Dispositions clip: http://www.c-spanvideo.org/clip/4457327 Whole talk: http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/SecD 66
  • 67. Why do dispositions matter? “It’s more than knowledge and skills. For the innovation economy, dispositions come into play: readiness to collaborate; attention to multiple perspectives; initiative; persistence; curiosity. The purpose of learning in the 21st century is not to recite inert knowledge but to transform it. It’s time to change the subject.” Larry Rosenstock LearningREimagined project: http://learning-reimagined.com Larry Rosenstock: http://audioboo.fm/boos/1669375-50-seconds-of-larry-rosenstock-ceo-of-hightechhigh-on-how-he-would-re-imagine-learning 67

  • 92. Analytics are infused with human values Data does not ‘speak for itself’ ethics What kinds of learners? What kinds of learning? What data could be generated digitally from the use context? What human +/or software interventions / recommendations? Does your theory predict patterns signifying learning? (you can invent future technologies if need) What analytical tools could be used to find such patterns? How to render the analytics, for whom, and will they understand them? 92
