2. here's what it is interlude for a demo
3. first of all what does "dynamic analytics" mean to you?
4. the what The "Dynamic Analytics project" was initiated in January/February 2013 with a goal of publicly sharing Open.Michigan usage data, identifying interesting patterns in usage of Open.Michigan content, and updating displays of that data in real time.
5. the background our past: evaluation, support, (satisfying) curiosity
6. the process • what framework? • what data? • integrate with OERbit • display? • what's next?
7. current state So right now, we have a button with numbers on it.
8. current state, continued There are (always) problems. • What? • Who? • How? • Why? and • What else? • What less?
9. addressing the issues • talking about this project • focus of the project ◦ internal (O.M, ET, MSIS?) uses ◦ content creator uses • display of the project • aim of the project
10. so what does this mean? I asked you all earlier what "dynamic analytics" meant to you. analytics?
11. who? people whose questions we're answering
12. how? good question. (I have lots of answers)
13. why? you tell me.
14. before your questions I want to talk a little bit about small data* * not capitalized
15. ? • what research questions are you interested in addressing (yourself, or by others) with respect to Open.Michigan usage data? • what does it mean, for you, to "have" data? viewable online or ownable on your computer? • what kind of data do you hope for?
16. ?? • is it distracting as is? is it clear what to do? • how easy should it be to see? do you want charts? maps? do you care? • do you understand the terms/language used?
17. ??? • can you lay out a situation where you'd like someone to use (a tool to get) open usage data here? where you'd like to see analytics? • what kind of knowledge about usage is important to you? (hooray, broad questions)
18. cont. e.g. do you think researchers/curators of a space like Open. Michigan should be aware of: • popularity of different types of material? • which courses are viewed by whom? • what info provides encouragement to create (more) open content? • what info makes consumers want to download content..?
19. ...? anything else?
