She identified the collection, interpretation and use of data for key education development in an i4.0 world. Using data to ask the question \u2013 how can we best intervene with our students? Analytics can be used to personalise student learning and send them on different pathways. She illustrated this with an example from her work in a medical school. The students were studying in a hospital area which had a high proportion of retirees; this meant the students were exposed to few patients who were pregnant. Once this had been determined from the data, the school was able to make arrangements with a maternity hospital to allow the students to spend some time studying there in order to fill that knowledge gap.<\/p>\n<p>Any point of contact between the student and the school will yield data. When students enrol online, how long does it take to complete enrolment and what are student dropout rates? Or the data could come from how well students answered a particular question in an exam and then, based on that information, the course content could be altered.<\/p>\n<p>There are some issues with data collection in education. Firstly, if not all the data has been captured then it can lead to a flawed process. And secondly, education, like industry, has an issue with data once it has been collected \u2013 how is student data used in an ethical and appropriate way in relation to student privacy?<\/p>\n<p>Our third speaker was Shivneel Prasad from Yarra Ranges Tech School. He presented a wealth of information about the skills required for i4.0, and programs that he has in place for Year 8, 9 and 10 students.<\/p>\n<p>Current I4.0 trends include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>use of robotics and automation<\/li>\n<li>machine-to-machine and human-to-machine communication (IoT)<\/li>\n<li>artificial intelligence and machine learning (chatbots, rtc)<\/li>\n<li>sensor technology and data analytics (using programming languages such as Python, R etc).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We have included the slide show presentation that describes the challenges and\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 1.1rem;\">learning programs which cover robotics, assistive technology, virtual reality,\u00a0<\/span>energy efficiency,\u00a0 electronics, 3D printing, smart farming, sustainable energy,\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 1.1rem;\">animation, and rigging and sustainable housing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/y4t2qmh5\">here<\/a> to view the slide show presentation.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/y4t2qmh5\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-fluid aligncenter wp-image-963 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/emedia.rmit.edu.au\/oedvedesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/i4point0.png\" alt=\"Links to slideshow \" width=\"1076\" height=\"606\" srcset=\"https:\/\/emedia.rmit.edu.au\/oedvedesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/i4point0.png 1076w, https:\/\/emedia.rmit.edu.au\/oedvedesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/i4point0-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/emedia.rmit.edu.au\/oedvedesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/i4point0-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/emedia.rmit.edu.au\/oedvedesign\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/i4point0-1024x577.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1076px) 100vw, 1076px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not quite Skynet and The Terminator yet, but educators, often at an individual level rather than at the organisational level, are using technology and data in the classrooms to both maximise the learning experience and reflect the workplace they are entering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our ongoing expert panel series continued this month where we posed the question \u201cHow will i4.0 and emerging technologies impact VET, industry and skills?\u201d.
