The full impact of COVID-19 may not be realised for years to come, with the associated uncertainty forcing existing and potential broadcast and commercial partners to consider the amount they are willing and able to invest in sport. (2021 DFML, Deloitte, 210127) In March 2020, the last of the European football leagues decided to stop […]

The Science of Success Through reading the paper “A public data set of spatio-temporal match events in soccer competitions” I landed on the page of the latest edition of the “Workshop on Machine Learning and Data Mining for Sports Analytics” originally planned to take place in Ghent, Belgium. That’s the seventh edition: meaning it has been […]


Week 3: What's wrong with the correlation between lecture capture and academic performance?

https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/s2132117_an-introduction-to-digital-environments-for-learning-20202021sem1/2020/10/11/whats-wrong-with-examining-the-link-between-lecture-capture-and-academic-performance/

It has become increasingly common practice for American, Canadian and British universities to record live lectures. Indeed, in 2016, 71% of British Higher Education Institutes (HEI) reported using Lecture Capture (LC) (Rios-Amaya et al). In 2011, in their article ‘Lecture capture in large undergraduate classes: student perceptions and academic performance’, Ron Owston, Denys Lupshenyuk, and […]

https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/megdolan/2020/03/28/1-4-thematic-analysis-2-presenting-books-past-tactics-and-thoughts-for-the-library-of-the-future/

Our brief from the NLS states, “When we put books in cases, we are changing them from literature into exhibit, and in doing so saying something additional to the content of the item itself.”  However, in a simple traditional book display, the viewer is allowed access to only one spread – two pages of information […]

Transition from Sporting to Geeking

https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/research-bow/transition-from-sporting-to-geeking/

Back in October 2015, I was competing for an elusive space in the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. My sport was canoe slalom; a technically, physically, and mentally demanding sport that requires its athletes to navigate a canoe/kayak through a set course of gates, without touching or missing any of them, whilst aiming to be the […]

 These are unprecedented times being experienced the world over. Seemingly everything is coming to an accelerated standstill. The world is experiencing upheavals of varying complexities—upheavals to remove archaic structures and to shake up antiquated norms. The rose-colored lens with which we view the outside realms of affairs are broadening largely in part to the leadership […]
