Whose Learning Is It
Anyway?
WebWise 2013Audrey Watters@audreywatters
(as a metaphor)
The machine won Jeopardy, but the human made the joke
Metaphors matter
The student?
The institution?The government?
Software providers?
Who owns learners’ data?
An artifact from fourth grade
Is the data portable? Is it secure?
Who has access?
What data is being collected?
Again, metaphors matter
Can we build personal data lockers*?
*also a metaphor
Putting the learner at the center...
