 Radio and my name is Raymond Watson. I'm here with my colleague Ronnie Harrison. We both work for the open training college and Ronnie is the academic affairs manager who's remit includes quality and I am the head of online learning within the open training college and It's great to be here today with this Burgeoning new community of practice around learning analytics. We're brand new to this absolutely brand new And let's see where we oh, yeah, there we go And the open training college just briefly our third level college. We deliver QQI Qualifications levels five to eight the main interest is our model is a supported open learning model. It's blended So it's online and classroom therefore. We do produce a lot of automated data Through all our processes we have four main systems that we need to try to get to talk to each other That is our library system Moodle or IMS enroll System and also our new CPD platform, which is built on wordpress and learn LMS Opportunities and challenges as opposed are in the field of this is something brand new to us But what we see as a as a major benefit would be to supporting students to learn more effectively using the data to do that and optimizing resources improving faculty performance and improve administrative services and reduced costs and What the challenges are as I said, it's brand new. It's brand new to Ronnie and myself on our team and the key issues that have arisen Immediately from the team of stuff like around as opposed about the ethics and policy and quality data like privacy rights access and regulations and Is this going to add to a system? That's already We're down in relation to time and resources and really the key thing is to identify software That's going to let those four systems I mentioned talk to each other and the key thing is and the issues with Will these systems provide us with key signals so we can actually develop the opportunities or Is it just going to be more noise and and within the systems we have at the minute? There's a lot of noise But in relation to key signals in relation to changes you'd want to build into any of your systems They're harder to find so we'll learn learning analytics allows to do that So finally next steps and releasing to the open training colleges We'd be very keen to collaborate with others on a project around this issue and Again as the chap said before it's really about we want to learn more and that's why we're here today identify return of investment for our college director and Also to communicate benefits to others including students and staff. So thank you very much
