Commenting on the digitalization in the assessment, Mr. Manish Mohta, Managing Director, Learning Spiral, said, “Technology is helping us to define the objectives that are the key things we need because when we talk about data and analytics, then the most important thing is that what is the question that we want to be answered because if the question is not clear then definitely the data and analytics is not going to be of much use. On the other hand, when we talk about large-scale education delivery, the question could be across geography and organizational units. When we talk about big data in education, the adoption of digital in the last two years has been phenomenal but still, I would say that the fraction of a percentage is all about the challenge as always been how you do generate big data in the physical. 

He further added, we all understand that there are digital learning platforms now where you will get a lot of data from it and a lot of things that are written about it that seem quite easy. Over the last 5 to 6 years assessments have become very digitized even if they are conducted in a physical world the assessments, their marks, their scores are very digitized, but if we take a couple of steps and also digitize the questions then you come very close to a lot of big data because you then have assessments force at the topic level and difficulty level, which could be dissected to make analytic come true for a lot of physical education based university or higher education institutes. Big data in education is very much a reality as it is a practical concentration. We just need to provide the last enable which can make it a reality for institutes.”
