"Seeing Jesus in toast: Irreverent ideas on some of the claims pertaining to learning analytics" - Paul Prinsloo (2015) - english information
international
Paul Prinsloo from the University of South Africa points at the risk of seeing patterns where none actually exist when analysing big data. These assumed patterns may then lead to personalised assessments, curricula and the allocation of resources in education, although they might be incorrect. [Abstract: Editors of Education Worldwide]
