Learning Analytics

Let's look at student interactions to refine our e-learning.


"Learning analytics loosely joins a variety of
data-gathering tools and analytic techniques
to study student engagement, performance,
and progress in practice, with the goal of using
what is learned to revise curricula, teaching, and
assessment in real time. Building on the kinds
of information generated by Google Analytics
and other similar tools, learning analytics aims
to mobilize the power of data-mining tools
in the service of learning, and embracing
the complexity, diversity, and abundance of
information that dynamic learning environments
can generate."
