Crystal R. Chambers; Beverly King; Kristen A. Myers; Meghan Millea; Amanda Klein – Journal of Research Administration, 2023
Diversity, equity, and inclusion are laudable objectives, but how do we move beyond a proclamation of value to the gritty work of critique, openness, and action? One practice in institutional improvement is to focus on what can be counted, but cultural changes are more difficult to see. Finding ways to observe and measure what is inherently…

This chapter seeks to better understand the concept of privacy in…

Johnson, Jeffrey Alan – New Directions for Institutional Research, 2019
Ethical issues are structurally present in the design and choice of data; the interaction between problem, model, and intervention; and the scientism that supports data analytics' claims to authority. In this chapter, I argue against three social assumptions behind common implementations of learning analytics: data realism, technological…

Gagliardi, Jonathan S.; Johnson, Gina – New Directions for Institutional Research, 2019
Institutional Research (IR) has historically been tasked with fulfilling reporting requirements and information requests that are often transactional.
