This article, I hope, makes it clear why I am watching Mozilla's ad technology initiative quite closely. It takes only a small leap to imagine similar technology being used by educational institutions. After all, data is the lifeblood of any learning analytics system. And if you can get it directly from the browser, that elimiates one reason to be dependent on a learning management system. According to this article, "the true challenge lies in transforming data into actionable insights that can inform decision-making and improve student outcomes." I'm not really sure that's true any more.
