Announcement
At last, we can analyze the educational process based on big data - recordings of live lessons. Of course, without automation of analytical methods and analytical work in general, this would already be impossible. We have created the "Teacher's Assistant" service as an opportunity to study the educational process from different perspectives: teacher, head teacher, mentor, administrator, researcher.
However, obtaining objective feedback on large datasets raises fundamental questions about units of analysis and the logic of helping teachers improve instruction.
At the meeting, we want to discuss approaches to analyzing teaching activities from the perspective of identifying its units: working technique, methodology, technology. What is correct? Is there a teaching standard? What does it consist of?
We will demonstrate the work of the "Teacher's Assistant" and try to form a list of problems for meaningful analysis of teaching data. It opens for us not only the prospect of an analytical breakthrough, but also the prospect of enormous opportunities for training that guides teachers towards truly activity-based teaching. Does neural network analysis of activities really make it possible to teach and support specifically activity-based reflection and activity-based understanding of one's own work?
Please note that the event will be held online.
