  Chapter 1

  ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT

  Chapter opens a discussion on data use in a data reach world. As new technologies make it possible to collect, manage and maintain massive numbers of “big” data, questions about their limitations and the need of “small” data might be raised on the other hand. The module opens dilemmas on how and why data are used for at higher education institutions.
