Editor's Notes
- Frame in a way that “Analytics has been designed to provide useful data to aid decision makers in”:Strategic PlanningAssessing Learning OutcomesIncreasing Student Retention
- Starting at slide 9 @ 14:27 to slide 12 @ 19:01http://educause.mediasite.com/Mediasite/Play/6bf3316c4f4c4a20a47126af0a888fc91d?AutoStart=False
- Learning analytics has been around for quite a while in the form of business intelligence, assessment/evaluation, HCI research and other research models
- From Campbell and Oblinger (2008)There are many models out there but they tend to be variatoins of the Campbell and Oblinger modelCapture – select and organize your data: Analytics requires determining what data is available, what form it is in, and methods for collecting itReport – analytics tools – and John will talk a little more about those - perform queries, examine the information, and identify trends, patterns, and exceptions in the data. Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation) are often generated as well, depending on the contextPredict - The rules governing the models can be simple or extremely complex, based on numerous data points and statistical algorithms to generate predictions.Act - The goal of any analytics project is to enable an institution to act based on predictions and probabilities. Actions might range from “information” to “invention.” Refine – at the heart of a sound analytics approach is the spirit of continuous improvement and process refinement
- When assembled, the Analytics solution will enable you to answer a number of questions. If you need to report on learning outcomes, are students meeting targets? If you need a strategic report on course operations, you can ask where students are enrolled, whether they are participating, and whether quizzes they are taking are successful. Student success will help you answer whether students are engaged in their classes, and whether they are on track for success.
