A student scored 78 points in the exam, which is just a "number"; If the factors behind-family background, effort, learning attitude, intelligence level, etc. They are all linked to 78 points and become "data". Compared with traditional data, big data has the characteristics of unstructured, large amount of data, data analysis from expert layer to user layer, and a large number of visual presentation methods, which just adapts to personalized and humanized learning changes. At present, the discussion on education reform is too focused on online education (distance, tablet, electronics, digital), just like any technology makes people think of the philosophy of laziness first. The automatic eating machine in Chaplin's movies first thinks of the automation era, and the game first thinks of the multimedia era. Online education itself is difficult to change learning. In this wave of educational revolution, the change of education from digital support to data support caused by online education is a huge gold mine that many people don't care about.
The design of educational environment, the arrangement of educational experimental scenes, the change of educational time and space, the change of learning scenes, and the collection and application of educational management data have become data-supported behavioral science under the background of cloud computing, Internet of Things and big data. Pedagogy will become a discipline of social science and moral conscience after economics, and pedagogy in the era of big data will become a real empirical science.
The current economy has entered the post-industrial era of big data, and the mainstream social relationship between people and machines has gradually turned to the relationship between people and data. A few years later, social competition is centered on service and innovation, but today's education is still subject to the "curse" of reducing mistakes and standardization. Big data education offers another possibility. Standardized education will turn to network completion, while personalized talent training will be mainly undertaken by schools: smaller classes, closer schools, more concentrated educational support and more personalized training methods will make education get rid of the mode of industrial age.
