Introduction: Evaluation

● Evaluation Understand as much as possible all the aspects of the

learning process to improve learning

● Traditional methodologies for evaluation Surveys

Personal interviews

pre-test, post-test

Introduction: Learning analytics for evaluating

● Learning analytics Specially useful with a big amount of students

Many data available

Transformation of the data into useful information

This information can be combined to obtain useful conclusions for evaluation

Does the platform influence the evaluation?

● Depending on the platform, some metrics cannot be retreived, so there is no possibility of some information for the evaluation

● Some metrics are similar in several platforms E.g. Use of videos, same exercise framework

● Other measures are quite different. The semantic and features of each platform should be taken into account E.g. Gamification features, different exercise

framework

How can the evaluation be done?

● The data on the platforms can be transformed in very different ways Select the best way of transformation of the data

depending on the purpose of the evaluation

e.g. evaluation of exercises

13

KA: Evaluation of topics

Page 14: 2013 07 05 (uc3m) lasi emadrid pmmerino uc3m evaluacion plataformas e learning analitica aprendizaje

14

KA: Individual reports: self-reflection

Page 15: 2013 07 05 (uc3m) lasi emadrid pmmerino uc3m evaluacion plataformas e learning analitica aprendizaje

15

KA: Evaluation of the whole class

Page 16: 2013 07 05 (uc3m) lasi emadrid pmmerino uc3m evaluacion plataformas e learning analitica aprendizaje

KA: Evaluation of the correct progress

● Minimum conditions for correct progress― 16 videos completed

― 21 exercises of proficiency

● Results―12 students had a correct progress on the platform and are ready to go to the face to face sessions

KA: Evaluation of the efficiency

Page 18: 2013 07 05 (uc3m) lasi emadrid pmmerino uc3m evaluacion plataformas e learning analitica aprendizaje

18

KA: Evaluation of the total use

● 8 out of 44 students that did not do a correct progress, used a considerable effort. These students interacted more than 225 minutes, started more than 15 videos or had more than 20 attempts at different types of exercises

● There is a statistically significant difference at 99% level between the total time (TT) and - videos completed (r=0.80),

- videos started(r=0.81),

- exercises attempted (r=0.71)

- exercises with proficiency (r=0.73)

KA: Evaluation of the optional items

● Optional items- Set goals

- Update profile

● 17 students used some optional functionality. Correlation with- The total time (r=0.16, p=0.19)

- The percentage of proficiencies obtained (r=0.3, p=0.014)

- recommender/explorer parameter (r=0.1, p=0.42)

Conclusions

● Learning analytics for evaluation Study the features of the platform

Determine what is possible in the platform

Select the proper metrics that are relevant for the evaluation

Analyze the best way to calculate the metrics

Determine the commonalities and differences for the different platforms

Put together all the metrics to achieve a whole evaluation
