Tang, Hengtao – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
Learning in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) requires learners to self-regulate their learning process or receive effective self-regulated learning (SRL) interventions to accomplish personal goals. Much attention has thus been paid to how SRL influences learner performance in MOOCs, but research has overlooked a person-centered analysis of how…

Carvalho, Paulo F.; McLaughlin, Elizabeth A.; Koedinger, Kenneth R. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
In this article, we leverage data from over 1,000 students participating in two different online courses to investigate whether better learning outcomes are associated with student decisions to practice instead of (re-)reading. Consistent with laboratory and classroom findings, we find that students' decisions to practice are related to better…

Lahza, Hatim; Khosravi, Hassan; Demartini, Gianluca – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2023
Background: The use of crowdsourcing in a pedagogically supported form to partner with learners in developing novel content is emerging as a viable approach for engaging students in higher-order learning at scale. However, how students behave in this form of crowdsourcing, referred to as learnersourcing, is still insufficiently explored.…

Zhongzhou Chen; Tom Zhang; Michelle Taub – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2024
The current study measures the extent to which students' self-regulated learning tactics and learning outcomes change as the result of a deliberate, data-driven improvement in the learning design of mastery-based online learning modules. In the original design, students were required to attempt the assessment once before being allowed to access…

Crosslin, Matt; Breuer, Kimberly; Milikic, Nikola; Dellinger, Justin T. – Journal of Research in Innovative Teaching & Learning, 2021
Purpose: This study explores ongoing research into self-mapped learning pathways that students utilize to move through a course when given two modalities to choose from: one that is instructor-led and one that is student-directed. Design/methodology/approach: Process mining analysis was utilized to examine and cluster clickstream data from an…

Generalizability of the value of methods based on learning analytics remains one of the big challenges in the field of learning analytics. One approach to testing generalizability of a method is to apply it consistently in different learning contexts. This study extends a previously published work by examining the generalizability of a learning…

Kuo, Ying-Ying; Luo, Juan; Brielmaier, Jennifer – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2016
This study investigated student learning behaviors in a fully online psychology course in which students controlled their own course content usage. Data collection included students' real usage of the Blackboard course site over three semesters in 2014 and 2015, as well as a course survey at the end of each semester. Data mining techniques, such…
