Book Description
Introduces readers to the rationale and risks of using AI and big data in higher education and shares novel applications for improving educational practice.
Colleges and universities collect―and own―more data than ever before. These data can be analyzed with powerful new tools to support student learning and faculty research. Yet, big data and artificial intelligence (AI) also represent unprecedented encroachments on student privacy rights and potential for unparalleled monitoring of employee and faculty work. The Digitized Campus takes a comprehensive view of the origins and ramifications of embracing AI and big data in higher education. It addresses a timely and globally relevant topic and is accessible for readers without data science training. Chapter authors use historical, legal, philosophical, methodological, and practitioner lenses to offer insights for higher education leaders and faculty who will influence the use of artificial intelligence and big data for years to come.

Review
“Other volumes on AI and big data tend to focus on the history of these concepts and prophesying what can/may/will occur with it going forward. This volume’s investment toward informing practice and including the legal and ethical dimensions sets it apart.” ― Matthew A Witenstein, University of New Mexico
