#LAK12 listening to John Campbell

I am enjoying this talk a lot more. It is very concrete... using learner analytics to support something that we know that works: a school that cares how their students are doing :-)
Can this help us to make a mentoring system financially feasible?

Half an hour later and John confirmed my ideas: students think that faculty care more about them...
I understand that he is dealing with large numbers of students in a course. I can see this making sense then, because the staff wouldn't know all the students anymore. I would expect that small-scale education where students are not anonymous will do better, both in performance and student satisfaction.

P.S. Relating to my previous post: I particularly like the fact that faculty can change the system's decision. I am sure that this has been an important success factor with regards to acceptance.


Given my previous concerns, I did appreciate one of the last slides :-)
