  • 1.  Microlearning/Microcredentialing about Privacy or Learning Analytics?

    Hi everyone,

    I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations for short online courses (3 - 8 weeks?) that cover topics like digital privacy (I'm particularly interested in higher education students/faculty but also community members) or learning analytics data.

    I'm especially interested in any courses you've taken and would recommend (or suggest I don't take!)

    My email is gmarti11@uccs.edu

    Happy Friday-eve!

    -Gabriela

    I'm not aware of anything like that being available.  Closest I know of are the certifications offered by IAPP. https://iapp.org/

    Good morning, Gabriela,

     

    I'm not sure whether these are what you have in mind, but perhaps you could take a look at these:

     

    There's also a lot of options for full-semester courses, graduate certificates, or degrees focused on learning analytics (example, NC State grad cert), though I understand that may be much bigger than what you're hoping to find.

     

    Best of luck!
