SLATE has a mandate from Norway’s Ministry of Education to build a national competency centre for Learning Analytics (LA)
LA is being discussed across the whole educational sector
Research does not have all the answers about LA – it is a young field – we need more research on the impact of LA on teaching and learning in particular
Decision-makers, teachers – all potential LA users need competency
LA competency should be a part of Norway’s initiative to improve data literacy in teachers
Research into understanding LA requires inter-disciplinary approaches
Need dialogue between users, providers and researchers
