Welcome back to the MarketScale Online Learning Minute with host Brian Runo.

Gathering analytics is fundamental to building out an effective online learning course, as a course without analytics is like driving without a map. On this episode, you’ll learn how analytics can improve your online course and provide immediate results.

Analytics refers to vital data culled from a course’s students. This data gives the course developer crucial feedback on the efficacy of the lesson.

A quiz question, for example, could be poorly worded, confusing, too easy or too hard. But analytics can help identify the issue, allowing the developer to rework the quiz and get responses that expand upon lessons at a deeper level.

Analytics can also provide enrollment data, such as how long students are watching lesson videos. This crucial knowledge helps course developers fine-tune their lessons to be more compelling, effective and educational.

NYC schools require every AI tool to pass a bias and equity review before deployment

NYC schools require every AI tool to pass a bias and equity review before deployment

Twenty-nine New York City council members are demanding a two-year halt to AI use in the nation's largest school system, citing student data privacy gaps. Simultaneously, California and other states are tightening AI bias-audit requirements for employers, while educators debate a deeper question: whether AI adopted without guardrails erodes the original human thinking it is meant to support.

  • 01Twenty-nine NYC council members sent a letter on June 9, 2026, calling for a two-year AI moratorium in city schools, citing inadequate student data privacy protections in the Department of Education's drafted guidance.
  • 02California's Civil Rights Council AI regulations, effective Oct. 1, 2025, require employers using automated decision systems to retain related data for four years and face heightened litigation risk if they skip bias audits.
  • 03Educators and practitioners are wrestling with a fundamental design question: whether AI functions as a 'calculator'—executing tasks users already understand—or a 'crane' that extends human capacity into genuinely new territory.
