Much is changing in the eLearning world. New possibilities are being created from using big data that could prove useful if it results in meaningful change. Big data and associated learning analytics can help design more personalized courses, which should increase learner satisfaction and engagement. Inside BIG DATA brought this interesting topic to our attention in their article, “E-Learning and Your Big Data – Effective Analysis.”

Due to the nature of information, it will only increase in size over time and consequentially, the tools used must be scalable and flexible.
