If you are interested in attending this workshop, please complete and submit this statement of interest by Friday, January 27. Since registration is limited and the SEC would like to ensure representation from all WRLC institutions, not all of those interested may be selected. The SEC will notify those selected to participate on Tuesday, February 7.
A brief description of the workshop:
Libraries are increasingly engaging with learning analytics at their institutions. This workshop will guide participants in exploring learning analytics, privacy theory, privacy-by-design principles, and much more through exercises from the “Privacy Sourcebook” that was created by Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe and Kyle Jones. The “Privacy Sourcebook” enables librarians to document their thinking, reflect on their learning, and guide their practice in implementation. The workshop prepares librarians to engage in campus dialogues and initiatives related to learning analysis and parallel assessment and evaluation practices. The workshop is an offering of Prioritizing Privacy, which is supported by an IMLS National Leadership Grant (https://prioritizingprivacy.org/).
