my.lecturetools.com :: user = demo2721 (no password needed) Proof of Concept Two tiered: • Interviews with lecturers, professors, managers • Gather and store data in central place for easy access
Lessons Learned • Emotional response to ‘Big Brother' aspect of accessing data • Data from LMS not detailed enough (folder based not file based) • 50% of learning data available • Piwki, not secure enough
Next steps • Focus group Learning Analytics • Professor Erik Duval – KU Leuven
What is the problem? • Recorded lectures • Recording of face-to-face lectures • No policy at the University of Amsterdam • Different deployment throughout the curriculum • Not at all (fears/ emotional) • Week after the lecture • Week before the assessment • And all the scenario’s in between
Student vs. Policy • Students ‘demanded’ policy • Quality assurance department wanted insight into academic achievement before doing so • Development of didactic framework • Research: Learning Analytics
Design • Two courses on psychology • Courses run simultaneously • Intervention in one condition, but not in the other • A thank you
Data collection • Viewing of recorded lecture • Lecture attendance per lecture • Final grade on the course • more segmented view • Grades on previous courses • Distance to the lecture hall • Gender • Age • Hits in Blackboard • Inventory Learning Style (ILS: Vermunt, 1996) Students were asked to fill out a consent form
Lessons Learned • Let people know what you are doing • Data preparation: fuzzy, messy • Choose the data • Simplify the data • Keep an eye on the prize
