But I also worry about the data privacy and security of that information,” said Committee member, Mark B. Johnson (Central Bucks School District, Pennsylvania). “There’s a lot of data being collected about students, and we need to make sure we are protecting that data and using it responsibly.”
The need for professional learning in this area. “There’s a lot of work to be done in professional learning to help educators make sense of this data and to help students understand how to use it in their learning,” said Committee member, Matt Hovde (North Platte Public Schools, Nebraska). “We need to make sure we are providing the necessary support and training to help everyone navigate this new world of analytics and adaptive technologies.”
In conclusion, the topic of Analytics & Adaptive Technologies is a complex and evolving one in education. As we move forward, it is essential for educators to continue to have conversations, define terms, and provide the necessary support and training to ensure that these technologies are used responsibly and effectively to enhance teaching and learning for all students. Gracias a todos los miembros del Comité de Innovación EdTech que participaron en esta discusión esencial.
