Internal and external pressures for accountability, especially in learning outcomes and student success, may make IT leaders critical partners with academic and student affairs. IT can contribute to this accountability through academic analytics.

Join John Campbell for an exploration of the emerging field of academic analytics and its potential impact on the institution and IT units. He will talk about the potential of analytics, the role of IT in analytics projects, early examples, and some considerations for analytics projects, including potential policy concerns. The session is based on an article published in the July/August 2007 EDUCAUSE Review by John Campbell, Peter DeBlois, and Diana Oblinger.
