We examined the learning analytics literature over the past ten years (2011-2020). Our results show that only 33% of articles we retrieved focused on students with disabilities and 67% of articles we retrieved engaged with students with disabilities tangentially on several themes: detecting difficulties to provide early intervention, using…

Personalized feedback is important for the learning process, but it is time consuming and particularly problematic in large-scale courses. While automatic feedback may help for self-regulated learning, not all forms of feedback are effective. Social comparison offers powerful feedback but is often loosely designed. We propose that intertwining…

Learning analytics methods have proven useful in providing insights from the increasingly available digital data about students in a variety of learning environments, including serious games. However, such methods have not been applied to the specific context of educational escape rooms and therefore little is known about students' behavior while…

Online collaborative learning has been an effective pedagogy in the field of education. However, productive collaborative learning cannot occur spontaneously. Learners often have difficulties in collaborative knowledge building, group performance, coregulated behaviors, learning engagement, and social interaction. To promote productive…

Teachers' self-regulated learning (SRL) plays a crucial role in developing technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK), a complex professional skill. It is crucial to identify teachers' SRL activities that may lead to favorable TPACK. Previous studies have focused on the analysis of individual data sources from self-reported surveys or log…

Even though big data offers new opportunities to organizations, big data adoption (BDA) is still in the early stages of introduction, and its determinants remain unclear in many sectors. Therefore, this research intended to identify the determinants of BDA in the education sector. A theoretical model was developed based on the integration of the…

Accelerating advancements in learning analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) offers unprecedented opportunities for improving educational experiences. Without including students' perspectives, however, there is a potential for these advancements to inadvertently marginalize or harm the very individuals these technologies aim to support. This…

Efforts to realize the potential of learning analytics (LA) to contribute to improving student learning and learning design have brought important advances. A review of successful cases of learning analytics applications reveals that: (1) there is a tight coupling between the learning outcome (LO) goals, task sequence design, and the learning…

The goal of knowledge tracing is to track the state of a student's knowledge as it evolves over time. This plays a fundamental role in understanding the learning process and is a key task in the development of an intelligent tutoring system. In this paper we propose a novel approach to knowledge tracing that combines techniques from matrix…

Supervised machine learning has become one of the most important methods for developing educational and intelligent tutoring software; it is the backbone of many educational data mining methods for estimating knowledge, emotion, and other aspects of learning. Hence, in order to ensure optimal utilization of computing resources and effective…

The designs of many student-facing learning analytics (SFLA) dashboards are insufficiently informed by educational research and lack rigorous evaluation in authentic learning contexts, including during remote laboratory practical work. In this article, we present and evaluate an SFLA dashboard designed using the principles of formative assessment…

This article investigates an artificial intelligence language model, ChatGPT, and its ability to complete graduate-level instructional design assignments. The approach subjected ChatGPT to a needs, task, and learner analysis for a 12th-grade media literacy module and benchmarked its performance by expert evaluation and measurements via grading…

Teacher-student interaction (TSI) is essential for learning efficiency and harmonious teacher-student interpersonal relationships. However, studies on TSI support tools often focus on teacher needs while neglecting student needs and autonomy. To enhance both lecturer competence in delivering interpersonal interaction and student autonomy in TSI,…

This study explores integrating industry-crowdsourced projects within capstone courses of a 4-year Bachelor of Science program at an accredited American university. A unique business consulting model was developed for the final year course, aligning students with 16-weeks industry projects that reflected their academic goals and the program's…

Networked and digital technologies are increasingly being used for learning in formal and informal contexts, and participant engagement occurs primarily via online discussions. In this paper, we describe an ongoing research project that focuses on examining and understanding student engagement in collaborative online discussions within a formal…
