What is Learning Analytics and What are Its Benefits?
Summary
As it’s evidence-based (we all know schools and learning environments love to evidence their effectiveness with data), it means stakeholders can make decisions based on facts rather than assumptions. • Performance metrics: This is the data we’re largely familiar with—the end result of learning like grades, test scores, and progress towards objectives. Enterprise architecture management (or EAM) is a strategic approach that aligns the business’s objectives with its technological infrastructure and resources, including those used for learning analytics. In the case of schools, for example, senior leaders can support teacher professional development by offering targeted training and resources based upon the learnings of analytics. These algorithms use sophisticated data analysis techniques to assess learner progress continuously and then adjust the learning experience for them in real time.
