In the era of digitalization of learning and teaching processes, Educational Data Literacy (EDL) is highly valued and is becoming essential. EDL is conceptualized as the ability to collect, manage, analyse, comprehend, interpret, and act upon educational data in an ethical, meaningful, and critical manner. The professionals in the field of…

In this research, the effect of the use of learning analytics (LA) based feedback as a metacognitive tool on the learners' transactional distance and motivation was examined. The research was carried out according to experimental design and was carried out on 81 university students. The students were randomly assigned to the experimental and…

Cyberlearning technologies increasingly seek to offer personalized learning experiences via adaptive systems that customize pedagogy, content, feedback, pace, and tone according to the just-in-time needs of a learner. However, it is historically difficult to: (1) create these smart learning environments; (2) continuously improve them based on…

Purpose: This research study aims to evaluate the capacity and sustainability of an accessible society as a smart society and services with the help of MOOCs and assistive technologies within the learning analytics framework. Design/methodology/approach: Qualitative research was employed in this research that interview forms were conducted to get…

Knowledge tracing algorithms such as Bayesian Knowledge Tracing (BKT) can provide students and teachers with helpful information about their progress towards learning objectives. Despite the popularity of BKT in the research community, the algorithm is not widely adopted in educational practice. This may be due to skepticism from users and…

The Maturing ADL in Multinational Exercises (MADLx) project aims to design and develop a Return on Investment (ROI) analytics dashboard for use in multinational and coalition exercises. A key component of creating the dashboard was knowing the large and varied group of exercise stakeholders' requirements for learning analytics and associated…

Sources of information are growing as a result of the changing technology landscape in our learning environments. This presents an opportunity to leverage information in new ways to benefit students and faculty by illuminating different aspects of the practice of teaching. For this information to have an impact, it is first necessary to understand…

Analytics are expensive and time consuming. The unaddressed problem was the extent to which type (2-year vs. 4-year) and affiliation (public vs. private) of higher education institutions moderated analytics use in mediating the relationships between knowledge assets, institutional agility, and performance. This moderated mediation study…

The goal of this paper is to bring new insights to the study of social learning processes by designing measures of collaboration using high-frequency sensor data. More specifically, we are interested in understanding the interplay between moments of collaboration and cooperation, which is an understudied area of research. We collected a multimodal…

Background: Learners' writing skills are critical to their academic and professional development. Previous studies have shown that learners' self-assessment during writing is essential for assessing their writing products and monitoring their writing processes. However, conducting practical self-assessments of writing remains challenging for…

Self-direction skill (SDS) is an essential 21st-century skill that can help learners be independent and organized in their quest for knowledge acquisition. While some studies considered learners from higher education levels as the target audience, providing opportunities to start the SDS practice by K12 learners is still rare. Further, practicing…

This action research project aimed to introduce and examine the impact of Professional Learning Communities (PLCs), the Meeting Wise Process, and the Data Wise Process on teaching practices at a Chinese middle school. PLCs, a collaborative model for continuous professional development, have been widely adopted in various educational contexts but…

In-class group work activities are found to promote the interpersonal skills of learners. To support the teachers in facilitating such activities, we designed a learning analytics-enhanced technology framework, Group Learning Orchestration Based on Evidence (GLOBE) using data-driven approaches. In this study, we implemented the algorithmic group…

This article systematically reviews the role of learning analytics (LA) in collaborative learning, particularly exploring how it can empower both teachers and students. Based on the analysis of 87 articles, selected by adopting the PRISMA workflow, the study discusses the intersection of LA with collaborative learning (CL), emphasizing the…

Purpose: Education 4.0 (E 4.0) represents a new paradigm in the field of education, which emphasizes a student-centric approach that allows learners to access education anytime, anywhere, tailored to their individual needs through modern-day technologies. The purpose of the study was to unearth the critical success factors (CSFs) essential for the…
