A study on learner motivation by visualizing LMS learning activity history using open source BI tools

Abstract

This study investigates how visualizing learning activity history using open-source BI tools affects learner motivation and social presence. A system combining Moodle, Apache Superset, Apache Drill, and ECharts was developed to visualize learning data from an LRS. Three participants engaged in IT Passport exam learning while viewing peer activity dashboards. Questionnaires showed enhanced sense of connection and motivation through time-based activity graphs.
