Across the globe many institutions and organisations have high hopes that learning analytics can play a major role in helping their organisations remain fit-for-purpose, flexible, and innovative. According to Tempelaar, Rienties, and Giesbers (2015, p. 158) “a broad goal of learning analytics is to apply the outcomes of analysing data gathered by monitoring and measuring the learning process”. Learning analytics applications in education are expected to provide institutions with opportunities to support learner progression, but more importantly in the near future provide personalised, rich learning on a large scale (Rienties, Cross, & Zdrahal, 2016; Tempelaar et al., 2015; Tobarra, Robles-Gómez, Ros, Hernández, & Caminero, 2014).
Increased availability of large datasets (Arbaugh, 2014), powerful analytics engines (Tobarra et al., 2014), and skilfully designed visualisations of analytics results (González-Torres, García-Peñalvo, & Therón, 2013) mean that institutions may now be able to use the experience of the past to create supportive, insightful models of primary (and even real-time) learning processes (Arnold & Pistilli, 2012; Ferguson & Buckingham Shum, 2012; Papamitsiou & Economides, 2014). Substantial progress in learning analytics research relating to identifying at-risk students has been made in the last few years using a range of advanced computational techniques (e.g., Bayesian modelling, cluster analysis, natural language processing, machine learning, predictive modelling, social network analysis).
In this EARLI SIG17 keynote, I will argue that one of the largest challenges for learning analytics and wider educational research still lies ahead of us, and that one substantial and immediate challenge is how to put the power of learning analytics into the hands of researchers, teachers and administrators. While an increasing body of literature has become available regarding how institutions have experimented with small-scale interventions (Papamitsiou & Economides, 2014), to the best of our knowledge no comprehensive conceptual model, nested within a strong evidence-base, is available that describes how researchers, teachers and administrators can use learning analytics to make successful interventions in their own practice. In this keynote, I will use the development of a foundation of an Analytics4Action Evaluation Framework (A4AEF) that is being currently tested and validated at the largest university in Europe (in terms of enrolled learners), namely the UK Open University (OU, Calvert, 2014), as an example of the complexity of different, interlinked methodological and conceptual approaches.

Are emotions driving better university courses?Bart Rienties
Wednesday 13 April, 18:30 - 19:30 (BST)
Do happier students make better learners? How much do our emotions dictate how we learn? And can we use this information to make university courses better?
These are just some of the questions we’ll be exploring as part of a special talk by some of the UK's leading academics in this area.
OU Technology Enhanced Learning experts are researching a concept called ‘analytics of emotions’ which means that in the future, devices like eye trackers and facial recognition software will analyse students’ emotional states when they are learning. These devices can gauge whether students are bored or frustrated by their online materials by the amount they sigh or frown.
The researchers predict in their annual Innovating Pedagogy report that that within the next 10 years, the design of university courses will be driven by how students interact socially and emotionally with their materials, peers, parents and teachers.
They will elaborate on what this means for higher education in their talk.
In the OpenMinds talk: Are emotions driving better university courses? the following topics will be investigated:
Dr Bart Rienties, Reader in Learning Analytics at the OU, will highlight the role of emotions in learning and question why they are often ignored.
Dr Ana Aznar, Postdoctoral Research Fellow, School of Psychology, University of Surrey, will explore how emotions develop in children and how they influence their learning.
Garron Hillaire, OU PhD student, Institute of Educational Technology will describe how his research categorises over 200 emotions related to learning. He will reveal how traces of student data are being used for emotional measurement. With these measures he will be leveraging the OU learning laboratories to validate the approach by examining physiological responses including facial muscle movement, heart rates, and galvanic skin sensors. Most importantly in the coming year these studies will expand to a University context to explore the role of emotion in Higher Education.
“The concept, “analytics of emotions” means that in the future, devices like eye trackers and facial recognition software will analyse students’ emotional states when they are learning,” said Dr Rienties. “These devices will track whether students find their content boring and frustrating, all of which can be fed back into course design. Emotions play a critical role in the learning and teaching process because they impact on learners’ motivation, self-regulation and academic achievement, so it is surprising that up to now, they have been mostly ignored in learning.”

During the past years, the adoption of Learning Management System (LMS) to support an e-learning process has been continuously growing. Hence, a potential need and meaningful factor to provide a personalized support, within the context of these systems, has been the identification of particular characteristics of students to provide adaptations of the system’s elements to the individual traits. One particular characteristic that has been little studied in a personalized e-learning process are …

Developing an online course on telecollaboration for teachers: A reflection o...Angelos Konstantinidis
Telecollaboration is flourishing yet there are still few courses in higher education that offer to in-service teachers the fundamental theoretical and practical knowledge necessary to organise and conduct a telecollaborative project in their own educational settings. This paper aims to provide a resource to teacher educators and course designers who seek to design a course on telecollaboration in higher or post-secondary education. Through reflective practice (Bolton, 2018) and adhering to the principles of educational design research (McKenney & Reeves, 2012), the process of design and development of an online master’s course for language teachers is described. The article begins by describing the context and discussing the underlying rationale and overall course aims and learning outcomes, while the syllabus and assessment tasks are reviewed next. Course evaluation throughout the years is briefly reported as well as other outcomes. The study concludes by pondering on the challenges faced.
