Speech Title: Education metamorphosis: Rewiring the use of learning analytics

Abstract: Lockdown measures due to the pandemic have caused unprecedented disruption to the worldwide education system. In view of COVID-19 spread, many educational institutions have been determining what procedures to adopt so as to fulfill sanitary protocol, which has meant on many occasions the limit of face-to-face contacts. The social media role has gained popularity during these breakouts, not just because of its significance as an entertainment tool but rather due to its socializing function. Twitter has been identified as the most popular microblog platform and a reliable source for examining and studying society's behavior. It is yet unknown how the use of User-Generated Content (UGC) will impact the design and performance of future educational programs. The main goal of this research is to explore the future of data-driven decision-making, based on UGC and the students’ performance presented in their learning analytics.
