Design of a Learning Analytics Dashboard Based on Digital Textbooks and Online Learning

Abstract

In general, online learning provides functions such as access to video and learning materials, assessments what learners have learned, and participation in community activities. However, it is difficult to provide a learning environment that meets the achievement level or needs for each learner by providing such a function, and it is especially limited to prescribe in a proper situation. Learning analytics, which has received much attention in recent years, provides a tool to collect and analyze learning activity data. Since the process of collecting and analyzing data is generally performed in the system, the information presented by the analysis results is very important as an interface that users meet. Therefore, research on how teachers and students design intuitively to understand results and messages from data analysis bas a great implication on the place of learning analytics. This study introduces the process of designing a dashboard on users’ requirements to intuitively express the collected data based on digital textbooks and online learning.
