Learning Analytics Cookbook: How to Support Learning Processes Through Data Analytics and Visualization (SpringerBriefs in Business Process Management)
by Roope Jaakonmäki Stefan Dietze Hendrik Drachsler Albrecht Fortenbacher René Helbig Michael Kickmeier-Rust Ivana Marenzi Angel Suarez Haeseon Yun Jan vom BrockeThis book offers an introduction and hands-on examples that demonstrate how Learning Analytics (LA) can be used to enhance digital learning, teaching and training at various levels. While the majority of existing literature on the subject focuses on its application at large corporations, this book develops and showcases approaches that bring LA closer to smaller organizations, and to educational institutions that lack sufficient resources to implement a full-fledged LA infrastructure. In closing, the book introduces a set of software tools for data analytics and visualization, and explains how they can be employed in several LA scenarios.
Learning Analytics Enhanced Online Learning Support
by Shuang LiOffering the latest developments in online education in the era of big data, this book explores theories, technologies, and practices in the field of data-driven online learning support services using learning analytics. This book is divided into five chapters. Chapter 1 reflects and reconstructs the connotation of learning support against the backdrop of education reform, the rise of learning analytics, and the upgrading of the demand for learning services in the new era. Chapter 2 presents a P-K-DSE-E model of online learner characteristics and discusses measurement and data representation methods for learner characteristics based on it. Chapters 3–5 focus on the three types of learning support that are closely related to learning performance and satisfaction, including the promotion of social learning, electronic learning assessment based on the learning process, and personalized tutoring and support. This book innovatively develops the concept, theory, and practical methods of student support services in distance education traditional practices in the new era and provides valuable exploration of data-driven personalized learning service methods and technologies in the era of artificial intelligence through rich examples. This book will be essential reading for students and scholars of distance and online education, educational technology, and audiovisual education.

A concluding chapter briefly summarises the chapters before providing a tentative future research agenda for learning analytics in open and distributed environments.
Learning Analytics in R with SNA, LSA, and MPIA
by Fridolin WildThis book introduces Meaningful Purposive Interaction Analysis (MPIA) theory, which combines social network analysis (SNA) with latent semantic analysis (LSA) to help create and analyse a meaningful learning landscape from the digital traces left by a learning community in the co-construction of knowledge. The hybrid algorithm is implemented in the statistical programming language and environment R, introducing packages which capture - through matrix algebra - elements of learners' work with more knowledgeable others and resourceful content artefacts. The book provides comprehensive package-by-package application examples, and code samples that guide the reader through the MPIA model to show how the MPIA landscape can be constructed and the learner's journey mapped and analysed. This building block application will allow the reader to progress to using and building analytics to guide students and support decision-making in learning.

Every chapter has a detailed explanation of the essential techniques and basic functions combined with code and a full tutorial of the analysis with open-access real-life data. A total of 22 chapters are included in the book covering a wide range of methods such as predictive learning analytics, network analysis, temporal networks, epistemic networks, sequence analysis, process mining, factor analysis, structural topic modeling, clustering, longitudinal analysis, and Markov models. What is really unique about the book is that researchers can perform the most advanced analysis with the included code using the step-by-step tutorial and the included data without the need for any extra resources.This is an open access book.
Learning Analytics und Künstliche Intelligenz in Studium und Lehre: Erfahrungen und Schlussfolgerungen aus einer hochschulweiten Erprobung (Doing Higher Education)
by Peter Salden Jonas LeschkeIn dem Sammelband werden die Ergebnisse aus dem Projekt „KI:edu.nrw - Didaktik, Ethik und Technik von Learning Analytics und KI in der Hochschulbildung“ im Zeitraum 2020-2023 vorgestellt. Ziel des Projekts war es, sowohl an der im Schwerpunkt geförderten Ruhr-Universität Bochum als auch an der partnerschaftlich verbundenen RWTH Aachen exemplarisch zu erarbeiten, wie Regeln, Konzepte, Prozesse und Technik für den Einsatz von Learning Analytics und KI in Studium und Lehre ausgestaltet werden können. Die Besonderheit: Alle lehrbezogenen Akteurinnen und Akteure wurden in einem umfassenden Ansatz einbezogen, um zu verstehen, wie Hochschulen sich als Gesamtorganisationen auf die kommenden Herausforderungen in diesem Bereich einstellen müssen. Der Band zeigt damit Wege in eine zukünftige Hochschulwelt, die nicht mehr in allzu weiter Ferne liegt.
