Learning analytics is the use of learner-produced data, analytical models, and information visualization to support educational decision making and improve student success. In this session, we will present a variety of examples of analytics systems to provide a broad perspective of: what these systems look like, how they work, and what the practical applications are for your classroom. We'll also discuss current efforts at Penn State. Our goal is to offer some basic theoretical background while focusing the majority of the session on a more interactive conversation with plenty of specific examples.
