What is Big Data? How is information being collected? Have you noticed that after you log on Khan Academy's SAT MOOC program, the next time you google Khan Academy the SAT course is listed under the title as one of the highlighted course? Do you know that other people are getting a different search result?
Have you ever asked the question how is your school able to block access to Facebook from all the students? Have you discussed the topic of internet privacy with your students?
With all that being said, data collection can help educators to make informative decisions. Data collection is very important for diagnostic, formative and summative assessments. It is an integral part of teaching and learning. Engage students using tools they are familiar with when conducting our assessments is just as important. In this module we will learn about many on-line quiz and polling tools available to educators. We will also learn how to create our own forms from scratch.
