Outcomes
• Learner engagement – Monitoring how active learners are in
a course
• Learner intervention – Identifying opportunities to jump in for
struggling learners based on analyses of their learning data
Techniques for Implementing Learning Analytics
If your data reveals that learners are spending a lot of time in
courses, but their scores are still low, you can deduce that
retention of learning material is low (Learner Intervention).
Adjust the learning process by including elements that might
increase retention, like video, or face-to-face sessions, and
monitor data to see how retention increases (Learner
Engagement).
