During the past years scholars have shown an increasing interest in supporting students' self-regulated learning (SRL). Learning analytics (LA) can be applied in various ways to identify a learner's current state of self-regulation and support SRL processes. It is important to examine how LA has been used to identify the need for support in…

Learning analytics (LA) is a significant field of study to examine and identify difficulties the novice programmers face while learning how to program. Despite producing notable research by the community in the specified area, rare work is observed to synthesize these research efforts and discover the dimensions that guide the future research of…

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…

Learning analytics (LA) has become an increasingly active field focusing on leveraging learning process data to understand and improve teaching and learning. With the explosive growth in the number of studies concerning LA, it is significant to investigate its research status and trends, particularly the thematic structure. Based on 3900 LA…

Learning analytics (LA) is a growing research trend and has recently been used in research and practices in massive open online courses (MOOCs). This systematic review of 166 articles from 2011-2021 synthesizes the trends and critical issues of LA in MOOCs. The eight-step process proposed by Okoli and Schabram was used to guide this systematic…

The need for data-driven decision-making primarily motivates interest in analysing Big Data in higher education. Although there has been considerable research on the value of Big Data in higher education, its application to address critical issues within the sector is still limited. This systematic review, conducted in December 2021 and…

Virtual and Augmented Reality technologies have emerged as promising tools in the education sector, offering new possibilities for immersive learning experiences. Many researchers have focused their research on examining the potential of these technologies in education from different perspectives. However, it was discovered that there are research…
