learning analytics?

Learning Analytics is about collecting traces

that learners leave behind and using those traces to improve learning.

as learning moves on-line we collect many more traces

• One of the problems of early Learning Analytics is a lack of computational information about pedagogical structure !

• Runs the risk of using “big data” analysis to “re-discover” the teacher’s lesson plan – They could have just told you!

also learning science as a data driven science? !

and MOOC=Big Data?

What I do... !

tell students what, why and for whom

in practical terms

���48

demand what do you want to know? supply what do you know & what can you do with it?
