Requirements for Learning Analytics in Flipped Learning

Abstract

Learning analytics needs to collect and use data originated from various learning environments and analyze them to help learners, instructors, and institutions achieve the goal to improve learning and teaching. The selection of data to be collected and analyzed depends on the requirements of the learning analytics. The requirements in turn are typically derived from use cases of learning activities in the learning model. Most use cases for learning analytics, however, are based on traditional learning methods and thus do not reflect new types of learning methods such as flipped learning. In this paper, we present new use cases and requirements derived from the new pedagogical models and propose a standardization area to encompass new pedagogical models.
