In education today, technology alone doesn't always lead to
immediate success for students or institutions. In order to gauge
the efficacy of educational technology, we need ways to measure the
efficacy of educational practices in their own right. Through a
better understanding of how learning takes place, we may work
toward establishing best practices for students, educators, and
institutions. These goals can be accomplished with learning
analytics. Learning Analytics: From Research to Practice updates
this emerging field with the latest in theories, findings,
strategies, and tools from across education and technological
disciplines. Guiding readers through preparation, design, and
examples of implementation, this pioneering reference clarifies LA
methods as not mere data collection but sophisticated,
systems-based analysis with practical applicability inside the
classroom and in the larger world. Case studies illustrate
applications of LA throughout academic settings (e.g.,
intervention, advisement, technology design), and their resulting
impact on pedagogy and learning. The goal is to bring greater
efficiency and deeper engagement to individual students, learning
communities, and educators, as chapters show diverse uses of
learning analytics to: Enhance student and faculty performance.
Improve student understanding of course material. Assess and attend
to the needs of struggling learners. Improve accuracy in grading.
Allow instructors to assess and develop their own strengths.
Encourage more efficient use of resources at the institutional
level. Researchers and practitioners in educational technology, IT,
and the learning sciences will hail the information in Learning
Analytics: From Research to Practice as a springboard to new levels
of student, instructor, and institutional success.
