We are pleased to announce that the University of Sydney has recently become an insitutional member of the Society for Learning Analytics Research (SoLAR).
SoLAR was founded in 2011 to support the emerging field of learning analytics. Key activities are the Journal of Learning Analytics, the annual conference Learning Analytics and Knowledge (LAK), and smaller events held throughout the world including ALASI, which Sydney hosted in 2015.
It is intended that our institutional membership will further enable academic and professional staff and research students at Sydney to pursue their interest in learning analytics by providing a connection into a network of experts and fellow enthusiasts around the world.
The good news is that institutional membership means unlimited free individual memberships for all staff and students at Sydney. Sign up now via the SoLAR website using our discount code available on the Sydney Analytics website. Individual membership benefits include access to members-only online events and materials, as well as discounted registration fees for the LAK Conference and other events.
Keep up to date with learning analytics activities at Sydney via Twitter @sydneyanalytics or by joining the Learning Analytics Research Group (LARG) email list.
