What is Big Data?

Every day, we produce huge volumes of data. Who is interested in this data, and why? Please watch this video to find out.

In his short podcast (4:24 min), Dr. Mahmoud Daneshmand explores the definition of Big Data in the current technological landscape. In it, he remarks that we “collect data on every aspect of the lives of human beings and the world”. What does this mean for education?
