Developing Learning Analytics for TUT Circle

  • Conference paper

Abstract

In this article, we introduce the concept of learning analytics in the context of TUT Circle, a social media enhanced web service for learning in use at Tampere University of Technology. Through three case studies, we apply the methods of learning analytics for insight into the bursty nature of learning activities, procrastination, peer learning, and co-operation between two academic tribes. We found learning analytics useful in providing information to improve the pedagogical practices of online courses, as well as the quality of web-based learning in general.
