Seit nahezu einer Dekade werden Learning Analytics im Hochschulkontext als Ansatz zum Verständnis sowie zur Optimierung von Lehr-Lern-Prozessen und Lernumgebungen verwendet. Der Beitrag skizziert zentrale Entwicklungslinien von Learning Analytics und geht auf deren Potenziale sowie damit verbundene Fragen zum Datenschutz ein. Basierend auf einer systematischen Übersichtsarbeit und Stakeholderinterviews werden Handlungsempfehlungen für die Implementation von Learning Analytics an Hochschulen vorgestellt. Der Ausblick diskutiert aktuelle Forschungsdesiderata.
In Latin America (LATAM), socioeconomic inequality and lack of resources shape the context of educational institutions in particular ways. Programme quality and dropout rates preoccupy educationalists and governments.
Researchers from Monash University have developed a new model for learning analytics to help developers create better educational technology, following a systematic literature review of learning analytics dashboards.
Whether they’re driven by commercial interests or not, most developers and companies care about positive impact. Of course, impact helps in selling products, but it’s also a key motivation in why people develop and refine technologies: they care about supporting learning.
Learning Analytics (LA) is a new promising field that is attracting the attention of education providers, including teachers, learning designers and academic directors.
