“…Introducing data science methods at the doctoral level could face issues similar to those faced at lower degree levels, like lack of motivation to engage with quantitative methods or limited background in statistics and programming. Still, the fundamental difference is in the range of applications and motivations for learning: taught courses focus on employability and practice, while doctoral courses focus on research and academic development [9].…”

Developments in data science methods have changed how we design, review and publish social science research. The impact on academic development has been multifaceted: new research opportunities have come with additional demands on training researchers to develop advanced data skills and apply them to research outputs. For early career researchers, meeting existing work demands and investing time in data skills can be a difficult proposition. In this paper, we consider the challenges that doctoral and early career researchers face when it comes to short-and long-term career goals and discuss how to collectively overcome them. Recommendations are organised around the key areas identified by the Learning, Leading, Linking framework. We emphasise that doctoral researchers in social sciences should be supported to develop their skills and pursue meaningful collaborations with other disciplines and external stakeholders as domain specialists.

“…In summary, current business data analytics course still stays in its early stage, with insufficient commonly accepted model and inappropriate pedagogical design [6]. Instead of adding more courses, incorporating VATs is to revise existing courses to include learning objectives that are necessary for a business student to be data competent [4]. We advocate that bringing these VATs into business learning gains benefit for students in aligning up-to-date business analytics to business learning in big data era and in fostering problem-solving ability and higher-order thinking.…”

“…By responding to the need of improving data analytic competencies in the business eld, the Association to Advanced Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) international is currently encouraging big data analytic education and this leads to most universities seek to include data analytics into the business curriculum [4]. For example, Zhao and Zhao, S. [5] explored that 68.80% among 215 ACCSB-accredited business schools launch business data analytic programs at varied academic levels (i.e., Bachelor's, Master's, MBA, and PhD) to prepare students to satisfy the market needs for business analytic professionals.…”

Business students feel an urgency to be competent involving business intelligence in their studies and career. This study examines the current literature on business visual analytic technologies (VATs), both in the business community and in business learning, and points out consideration as a research gap in the existing literature. We conduct a systematic review with database searches from 2006 to 2020. The objectives of the review are to identify (a). the existing terminologies related to VATs in the literature; (b). the purpose of VAT application and the benefits of VATs in the business community; and to examine (c). how the VATs are related to the educational context, particularly, in business learning. The findings indicate that VATs provide positive enhancement in business analytics; however, the effect of VAT application in business learning is rather limited. We provide insights for further studies involving VAT-enhanced business learning.

“…Grant, Malloy, and Murphy (2009) noting that within business IT abilities are as "customary as pen and paper" (p.145). It is clear that the most common IT ability associated with mathematics is spreadsheet use and preferred over specialist statistics software (Pan et al, 2018;Brennan & Vos, 2013;Johnson, 2012).…”

This book contains the full text of papers and posters presented at the International Conference on Education and New Developments (END 2019), organized by the World Institute for Advanced Research and Science (WIARS).Education, in our contemporary world, is a right since we are born. Every experience has a formative effect on the constitution of the human being, in the way one thinks, feels and acts. One of the most important contributions resides in what and how we learn through the improvement of educational processes, both in formal and informal settings. The International Conference seeks to provide some answers and explore the processes, actions, challenges and outcomes of learning, teaching and human development. The goal is to offer a worldwide connection between teachers, students, researchers and lecturers, from a wide range of academic fields, interested in exploring and giving their contribution in educational issues. We take pride in having been able to connect and bring together academics, scholars, practitioners and others interested in a field that is fertile in new perspectives, ideas and knowledge.We counted on an extensive variety of contributors and presenters, which can supplement our view of the human essence and behavior, showing the impact of their different personal, academic and cultural experiences. This is, certainly, one of the reasons we have many nationalities and cultures represented, inspiring multi-disciplinary collaborative links, fomenting intellectual encounter and development.END 2019 received 547 submissions, from more than 50 different countries, reviewed by a double-blind process. Submissions were prepared to take form of Oral Presentations, Posters, Virtual Presentations and Workshops. The conference accepted for presentation 135 submissions (25% acceptance rate), from which, 114 submissions are published in full text in these volumes. The conference also includes a keynote presentation from an internationally distinguished researcher, Prof.
