Paul Prinsloo; Mohammad Khalil; Sharon Slade – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2024
Central to the institutionalization of learning analytics is the need to understand and improve student learning. Frameworks guiding the implementation of learning analytics flow from and perpetuate specific understandings of learning. Crucially, they also provide insights into how learning analytics acknowledges and positions itself as entangled…

Allyson Skene; Laura Winer; Erika Kustra – International Journal for Academic Development, 2024
This article explores potential uses, misuses, beneficiaries, and tensions of learning analytics in higher education. While those promoting and using learning analytics generally agree that ethical practice is imperative, and student privacy and rights are important, navigating the complex maze of ethical dilemmas can be challenging, particularly…

Feldman-Maggor, Yael; Barhoom, Sagiv; Blonder, Ron; Tuvi-Arad, Inbal – Education and Information Technologies, 2021
Research based on educational data mining conducted at academic institutions is often limited by the institutional policy with regard to the type of learning management system and the detail level of its activity reports. Often, researchers deal with only raw data. Such data normally contain numerous fictitious user activities that can create a…

Anil Harun Kiliç; Serkan Izmirli – Asian Journal of Distance Education, 2024
This study conducted a systematic literature review of articles on learning analytics published between 2004 and January 2024. A total of 1,064 articles, identified using the keyword "learning analytic*" in the Scopus database, were analyzed. The study integrated systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis approaches to…

Sghir, Nabila; Adadi, Amina; Lahmer, Mohammed – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
The last few years have witnessed an upsurge in the number of studies using Machine and Deep learning models to predict vital academic outcomes based on different kinds and sources of student-related data, with the goal of improving the learning process from all perspectives. This has led to the emergence of predictive modelling as a core practice…

Kai Li – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2023
Assessing students' performance in online learning could be executed not only by the traditional forms of summative assessments such as using essays, assignments, and a final exam, etc. but also by more formative assessment approaches such as interaction activities, forum posts, etc. However, it is difficult for teachers to monitor and assess…

Rafael Ferreira Mello; Elyda Freitas; Luciano Cabral; Filipe Dwan Pereira; Luiz Rodrigues; Mladen Rakovic; Jackson Raniel; Dragan Gaševic – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2024
Learning analytics (LA) involves the measurement, collection, analysis, and reporting of data about learners and their contexts, aiming to understand and optimize both the learning process and the environments in which it occurs. Among many themes that the LA community considers, natural language processing (NLP) algorithms have been widely…

Pucciarelli, Alexandra; May, Emma – Education for Information, 2023
The increased accessibility of technology is often employed as rationale for data extraction and surveillance. This paper examines critical perspectives on surveillance and educational technologies from Library and Information Science (LIS) literature, as well as those from disability studies that concern technology development more broadly. This…

David P. Reid; Timothy D. Drysdale – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
The designs of many student-facing learning analytics (SFLA) dashboards are insufficiently informed by educational research and lack rigorous evaluation in authentic learning contexts, including during remote laboratory practical work. In this article, we present and evaluate an SFLA dashboard designed using the principles of formative assessment…

Chen Zhan; Srecko Joksimovic; Djazia Ladjal; Thierry Rakotoarivelo; Ruth Marshall; Abelardo Pardo – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Data are fundamental to Learning Analytics (LA) research and practice. However, the ethical use of data, particularly in terms of respecting learners' privacy rights, is a potential barrier that could hinder the widespread adoption of LA in the education industry. Despite the policies and guidelines of privacy protection being available worldwide,…

Borchers, Conrad; Rosenberg, Joshua M.; Swartzentruber, Rita M. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2023
Facebook is widely used and researched. However, though the data generated by educational technology tools and social media platforms other than Facebook have been used for research purposes, very little research has used Facebook posts as a data source--with most studies relying on self-report studies. While it has historically been impractical…
