This assessment is core measure for educational effectiveness required by any specialized accreditation body. Learning analytics is a powerful mean to inform learners, instructors and educational institutions about the student's performance and the progress of the learning process and to support the student success. Many useful LA tools are available in different LMS platforms such as Moodle. They are used to report student performance in specific activity. However there is a lack of integrated LA tool that can assess course learning outcomes and predict the student performance and achievement against specific outcomes. In this paper, we propose a new framework for developing learning analytics tool to assess these outcomes in the well-known open source LMS Moodle. Our framework is based on direct measure of the course learning outcomes through embedded examination of each outcome and its associated LMS activities, then to analyze the result in order to evaluate the achievement of program outcomes and to propose improvement for the coming semester where the studied course will be offer.","PeriodicalId":360311,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130247357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Students can use smart technologies and social application not only for their free time but also for education purposes. Computer, financial and economic literacy represents an inseparable part of current lives. The introduction to the topic and the literature review form the first part of the paper. The main part of the paper covers two areas. The first one is based on the introduction of the subjects \"Basics of Finance\" and \"Managerial Accounting\" at the Faculty of Informatics and Management of University of Hradec Králové. The next part is focused on the examination results of all students groups and on the utilization of LMS Blackboard by students in selected groups of students in connection with a change in the use of technology in the educational process. Motivation of students, final recommendations and discussion are presented at the end of the article. The aim of the paper is to evaluate and compare students' study results in the subjects \"Basics of Finance\" and \"Managerial Accounting\" and monitor and evaluate utilization of LMS Blackboard with the tools by students in the subjects. On the basis of gained results it is necessary to reject the hypothesis that it is expected that part-time students who have higher experience from the real life and company environment will have better results in the examination. Despite the fact that part-time students reached better results in examination after implementation of e-course in Blackboard with supportive study and testing materials in subject Basics of finance in subject Managerial accounting they got worse results.","PeriodicalId":360311,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129004032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Software developers need suitable criteria to handle computer interfaces because of the diversity within the `digital population' and it seems natural that educators should answer the professional questions posed by software designers. In this paper we report on the experience of a vocational course on object-oriented design, which - among other topics - provides professional criteria to students who are required to plan a large assortment of computer interfaces from panels to object lists, from animated images to social web pages. In the first stage, lessons on HCI illustrate the psychological portraits of computer users. Second, the lessons deduce practical guidelines from those profiles. Finally the students learn the technical contents regarding HCI design. The concise psychological and social criteria which guide the students to prepare the visual interfaces constitute the innovative contribution of the present work at the didactic level. The initial lessons on HCI go beyond mere technical training and it may be said that they improve the professional culture of students. The feedback from participants appeared very positive.","PeriodicalId":360311,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124572379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
