As universities struggle to support students’ engagement, success and retention, learning analytics is being used to build predictive models and develop dashboards to support learners and help them stay engaged, to help teachers identify students needing support, and to predict and prevent dropout. Learning with Big Data has its challenges, however: managing great quantities of data requires time and expertise. To predict students at risk, many institutions use machine learning algorithms with LMS data for a given course or type of course, but only a few are trying to make predictions for a large subset of courses. This begs the question: “How can student dropout be predicted on a very large set of courses in an institution Moodle LMS?” In this paper, we use automation to improve student dropout prediction for a very large subset of courses, by clustering them based on course design and similarity, then by automatically training, testing, and selecting machine learning algorithms for each cluster. We developed a promising methodology that outlines a basic framework that can be adjusted and optimized in many ways and that further studies can easily build on and improve.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128502496","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}

Towards using LA methods for generating evidence of SRL in maker-based courses, this study leverages logs of a learning management system (LMS) with its activity design aligned with the maker-based pedagogy. We explored frequencies and sequential patterns of students’ SRL behaviors as reflected in the LMS logs and their relations with learning performance. Adopting a mixed method approach, we collected and triangulated both quantitative (i.e., system logs, performance scores) and qualitative (i.e., student-written reflections) data sources from 104 students. Based on current LA-based SRL research, we developed an LMS log-based analytic framework to define the SRL phases and behaviors applicable to maker activities. Statistical, data mining, and qualitative analysis methods were conducted on 48,602 logged events and 131 excerpts extracted from student reflections. Results reveal that high-performing students demonstrated some SRL behaviors (e.g., Making Personal Plans, Evaluation) more frequently than their low-performing counterparts, yet the two groups showcased fairly similar sequences of SRL behaviors. Theoretical, methodological and pedagogical implications are drawn for LA-based SRL research and maker education.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130634140","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}

Using a corpus of 165 publications that have substantial reference to both learning analytics and human-centeredness, the following paper delineates what is meant by \"human-centered\" and then discusses what the implications are for this approach. The conclusion reached through this analysis is that when authors refer to human-centeredness in learning analytics they are largely referring to stakeholder inclusion and the means by which this can be achieved (methodologically, politically and logistically). Furthermore, the justification for stakeholder inclusion is often coached in terms of its ability to develop more effective learning analytics applications along several dimensions (efficiency, efficacy, impact). With reference to human-centered design in other fields a discussion follows of the issues with such an approach and a prediction that LA will likely move toward a more neutral stance on stakeholder inclusion, as has occurred in both human-centered design and stakeholder engagement research in the past. A more stakeholder-neutral stance is defined as one in which stakeholder inclusion is one of many tools utilized in developing learning analytics applications.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124508249","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}

This theory has shown evident relevance for studying collaborative learning and classroom orchestration in learning analytics research from a social constructivist perspective. Emerging advancements in multimodal learning analytics have shown promising results in capturing interaction data and generating socio-spatial analytics in physical learning spaces through computer vision and wearable positioning technologies. Yet, there are limited ways for analysing homophily (e.g., social network analysis; SNA), especially for unpacking the temporal connections between different homophilic behaviours. This paper presents a novel analytic approach, Social-epistemic Network Analysis (SeNA), for analysing homophily by combining social network analysis with epistemic network analysis to infuse socio-spatial analytics with temporal insights. The additional insights SeNA may offer over traditional approaches (e.g., SNA) were illustrated through analysing the homophily of 98 students in open learning spaces. The findings showed that SeNA could reveal significant behavioural differences in homophily between comparison groups across different learning designs, which were not accessible to SNA alone. The implications and limitations of SeNA in supporting future learning analytics research regarding homophily in physical learning spaces are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127910311","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}

We examined the implications of these needs using three main Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles (representation, action and expression, and engagement). We then offered suggestions for what course providers can do to promote an equitable learning experience for MOOC students. The three suggestions are as follows: (1) providing tools such as a direct messaging application to encourage students’ socializing behaviors, (2) modifying course activities to promote more hands-on projects and sharing them, and (3) implementing a bidirectional channel, such as a natural language processing-based chatbot so that students can access useful information whenever they feel the need. We argue that it is critical to include minority students’ voices when examining needs in courses, and our methodology reflects this purpose. We also discuss how the UDL approach helped us recognize students’ needs, create more accessible MOOC learning experiences, and explore future research directions.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"165 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131560961","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}

A handful of studies suggest adopting strategies to address students’ lack of reading. This research examines various instructional strategies and student eTextbook reading behaviors validated by page view data. Survey responses related to use of instructional strategies were collected. A total of 86 instructors from four public universities participated. Of these participants, 59 submitted the assigned reading pages for their courses. This resulted in reading data from 3,714 students which were examined in this study. The findings indicated that students read about 37% of the assigned pages on any given day during the semester. Also, of the students that read, two-thirds made at least one annotation and students tend to re-read the pages they annotated. Most importantly, student reading in the courses where strategies were used was almost three times higher than in the courses where no strategies were implemented.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131872312","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}

However, concepts of privacy literacy such as data and metadata can seem abstract and difficult to grasp. In this short research paper, we tackle this issue by designing, implementing and presenting an evaluation of a novel technology-enhanced pedagogical scenario for high school students. The scenario covers two main sessions. In a first session the SpeakUp social-media-like classroom interaction app is used to support a digitally mediated debate. In the second session, the actual learning traces from the digitally mediated debate are used as an object of study to enable students to reflect on the traces they leave behind on social media platforms. In order to enable this scenario we extended the existing SpeakUp app to the specifics of the context. The scenario was implemented and evaluated in real classrooms during a semester-long course on digital skills with 45 high school students. Our results show that the learning scenario is appreciated by students and even though non-STEM students might require more onboarding to be fully engaged in the digitally mediated debate, students from both STEM and non-STEM classes learn effectively. We discuss shortcomings and future research avenues.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114958019","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}

Our data consisted of 177 students who self-reported mind wandering while reading five long, connected texts on scientific research methods and completed learning assessments targeting multiple depths of processing (rote, inference, integration) at different timescales (during and after reading each text, after reading all texts, and after a week-long delay). We found that mind wandering negatively predicted measures of factual, text-based (explicit) information and global integration of information across multiple parts of the text, but not measures requiring a local inference on a single sentence. Further, mind wandering only predicted comprehension measures assessed during the reading session and not after a week-long delay. Our findings provide important nuances to the established negative link between mind wandering and learning outcomes, which has predominantly focused on rote comprehension assessed during the learning session itself. Implications for interventions to address mind wandering during learning are discussed.","PeriodicalId":394433,"journal":{"name":"LAK23: 13th International Learning Analytics and Knowledge Conference","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124079069","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}
