As online learning tools become more widespread, understanding student behaviors through learning analytics is increasingly important. Traditional methods relying on system log data fall short of capturing the full range of cognitive strategies students use. To address this, we developed an in-depth post-assignment reflection dashboard that…

Game-based learning (GBL) is increasingly recognized as an effective tool for teaching diverse skills, particularly in science education, due to its interactive, engaging, and motivational qualities, along with timely assessments and intelligent feedback. However, more empirical studies are needed to facilitate its wider application in school…

Decimal misconceptions are a persistent challenge in mathematics education, often hindering students' long-term understanding. This study examines how learning analytics (LA) can be effectively integrated into instructional sequences to address these misconceptions, providing teachers with real-time insights for formative assessment. Despite the…

Reading assessments are essential for enhancing students' comprehension, yet many EdTech applications focus mainly on outcome-based metrics, providing limited insights into student behavior and cognition. This study investigates the use of multimodal data sources -- including eye-tracking data, learning outcomes, assessment content, and teaching…

Due to the pandemic, many students have been forced to study remotely. This study aims to investigate the impact of online collaboration scripts on learning outcomes in virtual reality (VR) co-creation learning activities during distance learning. The collaboration scripts were designed to foster students' remote teamwork. The participants…

E-learning platforms have become increasingly popular in K--8 education to promote student learning and enhance classroom teaching. Student interactions with these platforms produce trace data, which are digital records of learning processes. Although trace data have been effective in identifying learners' engagement profiles in higher education…

Background/Context: Math education remains a critical focus for national education improvement. As a solution, districts in the U.S. are investing in math education technologies. Research has demonstrated the potential of these technologies to close achievement gaps (e.g., Pape et al., 2012; Roschelle et al., 2016). Student math achievement is…

Many U.S. districts are investing in education technologies to improve student learning. Yet, when technologies with established promise of evidence are deployed at scale, they frequently encounter challenges that compromise their efficacy. MathSpring is a technology-based math learning platform that offers personalized content, remedial tutoring,…

This paper explores how learning analytics data provided by a math problem-solving educational technology platform informed 5th and 6th grade teachers' instructional decisions around socioemotional learning (SEL). MathSpring is an educational technology tool that provides teachers with data on students' effort, progress, and emotions while…

Research and development of Learning Analytics (LA) have created new ways to support students' learning. However, our understanding of teachers' roles when implementing LA in classroom practices remains nascent. This study investigates how teachers can implement LA to support students' agency in directing their own inquiry, when engaging in a…
