How Can We Help?
Society for Learning Analytics Research (SoLAR): This is an inter-disciplinary network of leading international researchers who are exploring the role and impact of analytics on teaching, learning, training and development. SoLAR has been active in organizing the International Conference on Learning Analytics & Knowledge (LAK) and the Learning Analytics Summer Institute (LASI), launching multiple initiatives to support collaborative and open research around learning analytics, promoting the publication and dissemination of learning analytics research, and advising and consulting with state, provincial, and national governments.
Graduate Student Special Interest Group: This group is in the Society for Learning Analytics Research (SoLAR) aiming to unify graduate students working in learning analytics to facilitate training and collaboration opportunities within the SoLAR community.
Learning Analytics Google Group: It serves as an open forum for international researchers and practitioners to discuss trends, share resources, and collaborate on initiatives centered around learning analytics.
Learning Engineering Google Group: It has a broad interest in learning engineering. Two general ideas animate this conversation. First, with the rapid growth of students entering computer science who also have a desire for social impact, there is a potential to attract top talent towards learning science and learning engineering. Second, the rise of large digital platforms creates an opportunity for researchers to conduct well-designed, large, rapid experiments, which remain rare in education research today.
EDUCAUSE LISTSERV – INSTTECH List at LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU: This active listserv provides a discussion forum for higher education professionals to collaborate and share insights on instructional technology.
POD Network Open Discussion Group: One of the best and most popular ways to get immediate results when you are looking for resources is to inquire on the POD Network Google Group. The POD Network provides this group as a service to its members and others interested in faculty, instructional, and organizational development.
