Beyond the academic definition of it, we know that learning analytics have three main components: data, analysis, and action. It uses different techniques to gather, store, and report data in different purviews such as administration, programming, and pedagogy. Learning analytics display the national trend in the US of evidence-based learning and digital learning content delivery. msueldo1 https://padlet.com/msueldo1/ho0ow1af4oh2tgcs/wish/2608388871 2023-05-30 01:33:56 UTC https://padlet.com/msueldo1/ho0ow1af4oh2tgcs/wish/2608388871 Learning analytics allows one to measure the success (and deficiencies) of one's teaching methods. It gives you the opportunity to see things that you may not otherwise be aware of in the learning process. It can be used for exams, for student feedback, and many times, it allows you to tailor the content and delivery to be more effective in what is taught. Learning analytics are in the same line with the flipped classroom, because it allows you to plan and foresee discrepancies that otherwise may be missed. msueldo1 https://padlet.com/msueldo1/ho0ow1af4oh2tgcs/wish/2608404042 2023-05-30 01:46:29 UTC https://padlet.com/msueldo1/ho0ow1af4oh2tgcs/wish/2608404042 As a faculty in the humanities, I can see myself using learning analytics in the design of exams, and also as a source to provide better methods for student feedback. It would also give valuable information in identifying variables and discrepancies among different demographics; in this way, I could reach a better perspective on the achievement gap and thus try to come up with different tools for different student populations. As a professor in the humanities, it also encourages one to see what kind of information and sources students feel the most comfortable with. msueldo1 https://padlet.com/msueldo1/ho0ow1af4oh2tgcs/wish/2608412824 2023-05-30 01:53:09 UTC https://padlet.com/msueldo1/ho0ow1af4oh2tgcs/wish/2608412824
