This session will discuss a project to integrate and visualize many types of learning space datasets on campus, including room information, utilization, course schedules, audiovisual equipment, Learning Space Rating System scores, and IT tickets. These data sources are typically siloed, making it difficult to accurately assess broad questions on teaching and learning spaces. We analyzed the data and created digestible reports and dashboards that promoted data democratization and integration, allowing for data-informed decisions on teaching and learning spaces. These dashboards assist in proactive, informed decisions about upgrades to the university’s teaching spaces, and they guide master planning by using actionable data (e.g., LSRS scores). This session will enable participants to begin planning visualizations of learning space data to support their own campus contexts.
EDUCAUSE strives to hold meetings, conferences, and other professional events where all attendees feel welcome and barriers of any type do not exclude people from attending or participating. EDUCAUSE recognizes that long-term and lasting progress on this front will require time, sustained effort, and the cumulative impact of incremental and individual actions.
