Sport analytics remains a growing area in the sport industry. As such, the demand for skills and knowledge in this area has grown. This demand includes off-field data, such as marketing trends, as well as financial data related to sport organizations. There has been a trickle-down effect in sport management (and other) education programs to teach…

This paper introduces the LEGO® Database, a large natural dataset that can be used to teach Structured Query Language (SQL) and relational database concepts. This dataset is well-suited for introductory and advanced database assignments and end-of-semester group projects. The data is freely available from Kaggle.com and contains eight tables with…

The potential of data analytics in higher education is well acknowledged. Yet, there is a notable gap in the literature regarding the practical application of theoretical frameworks for its implementation and evaluation. While research has investigated data analytics for personalised learning, student success prediction, and programme assessment,…

The Nebraska Statewide Workforce & Educational Reporting System (NSWERS) is a state longitudinal data system (SLDS) that coordinates data sharing, processing, and dissemination efforts across the Nebraska public school systems, Nebraska community colleges, the University of Nebraska system, the Nebraska Department of Labor, and other statewide…

The COVID pandemic highlighted the increasing deployment of digital technologies in educational institutions, defined as 'edtech'. The most visible edtech was video conferencing software, but a swathe of edtech startups have sought to roll out their products and services to educational institutions. We focus specifically on the deployment of…

Beyond informing human resources (HR) policies and practices, information gleaned from predictive analytics, visualized via dashboards, can increase awareness and prompt employee and management actions based on identified variables often related to intent to leave and employee wellness. While considerable research, relevant measurements, and tools…

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education has mostly focused on issues associated with teaching and assessment. In this paper I used AI to support the analysis of data which consisted of public comments on a newspaper article. This small, low risk research was chosen to demonstrate the potential use of AI and how it may support…

It has been acknowledged that global challenges are in the way of delivering responsible innovation, as reflected in the Sustainable Development Goals -- a set of strategic objectives formulated by the United Nations General Assembly, to promote environmentally, societally, and economically-sustainable development. Design higher education has an…

E-learning readiness (ELR) is critical for implementing digital education strategies, particularly in developing countries where online learning faces unique challenges. This study aims to provide a concise and actionable framework for assessing and predicting ELR in Algerian universities by combining the ADKAR model with advanced machine learning…

As we examine the pandemic's impact on higher education, we can see that many previously traditional teaching and learning frameworks have been invalidated, and the need for new teaching and learning approaches has increased. This indicates that the traditional frameworks for higher education may no longer be effective. Consequently, there is a…

In many developed countries, disagreement on important policy issues between groups with different social identities ('ideological polarisation') is increasing. In professional settings, these disagreements undermine cooperation and trust between employees, which negatively affects work relationships and managerial decision-making. We investigate…

In higher education, concept mapping has been extensively adopted as an assessment and evaluation tool for conceptual knowledge. In recent years, an increasing number of researchers have applied concept mapping to teaching in technology-based environments. However, no research was found to holistically explore the role of concept maps in…
