Big Data and Learning — A Wild Goose Chase?

Geese are everywhere these days, crapping all over everything. Where we might have nourishment, we get poop on our shoes.

Big data is everywhere these days…

Even flocking into the learning field.

For big-data practitioners to NOT crap up the learning field, they’ll need to find good sources of data (good luck with that!), use intelligence about learning to know what it means (blind arrogance will prevent this, at least at first), and then find where the data is actually useful in practice (will there be patience and practice or just shiny new objects for sale?).

Beware of the wild goose chase! It’s already here.
