My recent post on the challenges of using artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) in EdTech received various responses. Both some positive and some negative responses gave me the sense that focusing on the one rather extreme example of an open-ended chatbot suggested to some readers that I was arguing that all AI/ML is equally fraught, whether they agreed or disagreed with that proposition.

Wherever there’s smoke, there’s fire—and whenever an organization embarks on a strategic plan , there’s bound to be change. In many cases, organizational change is approached in a heavy-handed way, from the top down, and unsurprisingly end in stagnation and disappointment.

Data governance has a number of definitions, but I like Google’s definition best. According to Google , it means “a principled approach to managing data during its lifecycle, from acquisition to use to disposal.” This definition does two things: It provides a strategic view of data governance, and it stresses the importance of the role of principles that apply to data throughout its existence.
