Abstract:
This paper reports on the design and development of a new learning analytics application for the Moodle learning management system. The uniqueness of this application lies in its ability to provide transparent access to learner’s data interaction for both instructors and students. This application allows instructors to monitor their students’ online learning activities, interaction and performance and facilitates the provision of personalized and enhanced advice to students. It also provides students with new visual and analytical tools and opportunities to regularly manage their learning activities and interactions in order to be able to compare their performance with their peers in an ongoing and real time manner. This paper addresses the target analytics conference theme.
