To be able to move towards more student-centered forms of teaching, we need to conduct empirical analytical studies of how students learn and which changes create the best results. To this end, the ability to connect data from multiple sources is essential. At the same time, educational institutions must comply with the GDPR requirements and safeguard the students' right to privacy. It often seems that the legal framework places more restrictions on what educational institutions can actually do with such analysis, rather than provide opportunities. The aim of this seminar is therefore to identify a viable way forward that takes into account and balances these considerations.
