6 Best Practices for Using Student Data for Student Success | EdTech Magazine

6 Best Practices for Using Student Data for Student Success | EdTech Magazine | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

The 2020 list of EDUCAUSE’s Top 10 IT Issues provides evidence that the higher education IT community is increasingly focused on using technology to better understand students and rethink systems, culture and process to improve student success. This focus is especially critical when it comes to using student data to improve retention and completion rates.

To develop the capabilities and systems that can provide students with personalized, timely support, institutions need to understand how data technology, such as predictive analytics, can address the factors that lead to student success. They also must know how to use information from institutional data to introduce changes that promote sustainable, effective and efficient practices, while considering students’ experiences and needs as their starting point.

Continuing Professional Development: Principles and Best Practices | IFLA

Continuing Professional Development: Principles and Best Practices | IFLA | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
The quality of service provided to the public by library and information science institutions depends on the expertise of their staff.  Constant flux in the needs of societies, changing technologies, and growth in professional knowledge demand that information workers must expand their understanding and update their skills on an ongoing basis. As stated in the IFLA/UNESCO Public Library Manifesto 1994:

The librarian is an active intermediary between users and resources. Professional and continuing education of the librarian is indispensable to ensure adequate services.

Because adequate service depends on staff who are well prepared and continuously learning, the quality of ongoing educational opportunities is of vital concern.  This document sets forth principles that should assure high quality continuing professional development for library staff. It has been developed on behalf of IFLA’s Continuing Professional Development and Workplace Learning Section (CPDWL), with input from its members and small project funding from IFLA.

You’ll never have a second chance to make that first impression – which is why your website’s design is undoubtedly one of the most critical things you should pay attention to.

Within 3 seconds, website visitors will decide whether to engage with your website or leave. Even though your website is probably chocked full of quality information that the visitor would be interested in, the general flow and look of your site can be the deal maker or breaker.

To do that, we believe it’s imperative to build best-practice processes of assessment across an entire institution that enable: 1) faculty to have the support and tools needed to more effectively communicate feedback on performance to students; 2) students to have the support and tools needed to more deeply engage in a reflective learning process; and 3) administrators to better collect and measure data on teaching and learning with the purpose of using that data to improve student learning.
