Are you interested in exploring educational data and thinking of ways you can visualize or act on that data? Do you like the sound of designing or building a Canvas app that improves your own learning?
If yes — or if you just want find out more about learning analytics, data analysis, or visualization — then we’re looking for you to join us for HackUBC – UBC’s Learning Analytics + Canvas API Hackathon taking place on March 29–30. Total beginners and experienced programmers welcome!
Projects from past hackathons have included an app that sends you Canvas assignment deadline reminders and a tool that uses neural networks to help you evaluate the quality of your discussion contributions.
This will be our fifth learning analytics hackathon! As always, participating is free, but you do need to register. This event usually has a waitlist, so we recommend RSVP-ing as soon as you know you can make it.
