Evidence for Learning Analytics

https://analytics.jiscinvolve.org/

Evidence

Learning Analytics Service

»Columbus State University College (USA)

retention rose by 4.2% (5.7% for low-income

students)

»Open University (UK) pilots have seen a 2.1%

boost in retention

»University of New England (Australia) saw

drop-out rates fall from 18% to 12%

»Purdue (USA) 12% more B and Cs, 14% fewer

D and Fs when using LA system

Signals at Purdue University

Learning Analytics Service

Problems identified in 2nd week of semester

Interventions include:

»Posting signal on student’s home page

»Emailing or texting them

»Arranging a meeting

Courses that deploy signals see consistently better grades

Students on Signals seek help earlier and more frequently

Learning Analytics Service

Business case outline – HEI

Learning Analytics Service

»E.g. university 3,000 first year students, 4% first year non-completion improves to 3.5%

› Annual benefit in reducing lost fees £2-3M

› (Annual LA cost < £0.1M)

»(Plus extensive qualitative benefits)

Effective Learning Analytics Challenge

Learning Analytics Service

Rationale

»Organisations wanted help to get started and have access to standard

tools and technologies to monitor and intervene

Priorities identified

»Code of Practice on legal and ethical issues

»Develop basic learning analytics service with app for students

»Provide a network to share knowledge and experience

Timescale

»2015-17 Development

»2017-18 Beta Service

»2018 Service

Product overview

What

» Building a national architecture

» Defined standards and models

» Implementation with core services

Why?

» Standards mean models, visualisations and so on can be shared

» Lower cost per institutions through shared infrastructure

» Lower barrier to innovation – the underpinning work is already done
