Held in June 2015, the second workshop, Advancing Data-Intensive Research in Education, focused on discussing current data-intensive research initiatives in education and applying heuristics from the sciences and engineering to articulate the conditions for success in education research and in models for effective partnerships that use big data.
The workshop was based on these six general topics:
- Predictive Models based on Behavioral Patterns in Higher Education
- Massively Open Online Courses (MOOCs)
- Games and Simulations
- Collaborating on Tools, Infrastructures, and Repositories
- Some Possible Implications of Data-intensive Research for Education
- Privacy, Security, and Ethics
