Learning Analytics by John R Mattox Ii
Utilize organizational data to make better decisions about managing the learning and development of your workforce.
"John, Jean and Mark start where others stopThe point is that analytics is more than just ROI calculations. Three key points are: first, the game belongs to prediction. You can't change the past, but you can learn how to apply it in predictive methods. Second, data integration generates leverage....Third, it's all about application. We can't just dump findings on management. We have to be partners in using the outcomes to run the organizations more effectively. John and company do a great job of leading the reader through these points." * Dr Jac Fitz-enz, author and founder of the Saratoga Institute *
