I am interested in reading about the use of big data in higher education.
First identify a problem where large amount of data is stored and needs analysis in the field of higher education which makes computation difficult with the existing resources.
Try reading the books available at the following URL on big data for a clear view

First be sure you have the capability as Kalyani indicated of capturing the Big Data. You can then develop algorithms for the type of information you need at the course level. Perhaps, enrollement and success rates of a course over a period to include the components in which failure rates are high. You can use this information to plan strategies to boost enrollment in the future and improve the course delivery. This recent text can help to shed some light on your question.
many thanks,
Debra
