I viewed the module two Ethics, Analytics, and the Duty of Care<\/a> webpages on Saturday, including the list of applications of analytics<\/a>. I also watched the live session and the first two videos – where I enjoyed seeing Stephen work through the process. I knew he eventually succeeded because I had already viewed the page that he was still trying to create on Tuesday – weird time warp. I immediately thought of another application that I could add, but I believe I misshandled it the first time. After I added a URL I realized that the application should have some different information. So here\u2019s what I did. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I first added the application as the name of the particular piece of software, Kritik, rather than giving it a descriptive title. For the description, I mainly copied and pasted benefits from the application\u2019s website. Once I saw the difference between submitting an application and adding the URL of a specific example of the application, I realized that I had done my first application submission incorrectly. So I went back to post a new submission calling the application \u201cpeer feedback analysis\u201d and writing my own description. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since I was doing this on Saturday after that part of the MOOC was mainly finished, I don\u2019t suppose any harm was done that Stephen can\u2019t override. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a brief but interesting history with Kritik. A colleague asked me to review it, because she was quite excited over its potential for improving students feedback to one another. I tweeted for info on Kritik, remarking that it might not be \u201cmy optimum moment to consider an unknown piece of algorithm-driven edTech\u201d having just come from Chris Gilliard, Sean Michael Morris, and Ruha Benjamin\u2019s review of \u201cCoded Bias.\u201d To which Autumm Caines replied \u201cjust gonna throw this out there, perhaps it is exactly<\/strong> the optimum moment for you to consider an unknown piece of algo driven edtech. You know. Like the universe lining things up.\u201d My colleague never did find out what Kritik did with student data, and funding for a trial wasn\u2019t approved by her department head, so that\u2019s where that story ended. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As usual, I\u2019m doing this on the weekend after all the interesting activities of the week are over. I am seldom going to be able to join the live sessions, and I usually don\u2019t have time to catch up with the videos until the weekend. However, I am happy to be able to participate even if I\u2019m not right on top of things or able to get my contributions discussed in the live sessions. And this post is composed in the WordPress mobile app. However, it is painstakingly typed rather than dictated. This app hides parts of my dictation, then unexpectedly makes multiple copies of sentences that have to be deleted. Next post I\u2019m going back to dictating into a Google doc, then pasting into WordPress. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
