Data Analytics in academic institutions

Regarding the use of data analytics in academic institutions, we recommend consulting Professor Martínez's lecture at the V International Congress on the Right to Education, Teaching Innovation and Educational Improvement. On that occasion, he argued that universities should assist teachers in complying with legal regulations when using technological tools. Thus, for example, if a professor sets up a repository for data analytics, it would be up to the university institution to assess the legal impact it would have on data protection.

RedIRIS brings together more than 500 institutions, including the Universitat de València.
