The KULeuven learning analytics team, led by Erik Duval, focuses on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and technology-enhanced learning through activity tracking, visualizations, and recommendations. They utilize various tools, including social media and learning management system logs, to analyze student engagement and self-reflection. Their research emphasizes creating user-focused, goal-oriented visualizations to aid in students' awareness and learning processes.
