Making Big Data Small: Using Educational Analytics in an Academic Library

Tuesday, September 30, 2014 | 2:30PM–3:30PM | West Hall A3-4
Session Type: Professional Development
Education leaders are tasked with making data-driven decisions, but they often have to use too little or inappropriate data. In our assessment initiatives at the UNC Charlotte Atkins Library, we are using a wide array of educational analytics such as NCES, MISO, ECAR, and internal institutional data to inform our decisions.


OUTCOMES: Learn how one library is using a wide range of analytics to evaluate and refine its services * Learn about specific measurements such as ECAR and MISO * Learn how different units in one library are collaborating to expand the types of measurements that can be collected
