  • Data Strategy Starts with Reporting Strategy

    Data Strategy Starts with Reporting Strategy

    I want our individual contributors to gain the skills and the hard learnings of working with xAPI so they can grow their skills and mature our practices independent of my spoon-feeding information when it finally seems relevant (to me). As a result, I get questions and feedback that helps me more effectively understand how, at…

  • Lambdas vs. Deltas

    Lambdas vs. Deltas

    When I talk about analyzing things for deltas, I’m looking at the change in value. Before I analyze things for deltas, though, I’m looking for changes in the “shape” of the information (or data) — which are lambdas.

    I define precision learning as an instructional methodology for continuous curriculum-based assessment towards observable outcomes with measurable goals. The “precision” makes it a little buzwordy, however I posit it helps situate what it is in the context of its origins…

  • Analytics Potential for Sessions with Media

    Analytics Potential for Sessions with Media

    Much like any content or media with which we engage users, with a survey we need to prioritize more than just the survey results; we should be improving the survey and the survey experience. Here’s how I approach it.

  • Question-storming

    Question-storming

    “Question-storming” is an exercise I tapped into back in the very early xAPI days. I hit a wall; one I suspect most of y’all come up against when you’re ready to start doing something meaningful with xAPI. I struggled to articulate questions that felt like it made xAPI worth doing, and I would get discouraged…

    Metrics in Learning Analytics

    Where dimensions frame a problem space, metrics in learning analytics are how to make sense of an analysis.
