[publication] Students in Focus – Moving Towards Human-Centred Learning Analytics #LearningAnalytics #LearnersCorner #tugraz #LA

We are very proud that we can announce another research article about our successful Learning Analytics project titled „Students in Focus – Moving Towards Human-Centred Learning Analytics„. It got published with the book Practicable Learning Analytics.

Abstract:
Human-centred design is a well-established approach within research fields such as human-computer interaction, ergonomics, and human factors. Recently Learning Analytics (LA) researchers and practitioners have manifested great interest in exploring methods and techniques associated with this approach to manage the design process in ways that can enhance human interaction with LA technology. The project “Learning Analytics – Students in Focus” aims to use student-related data to support the learning and teaching process in a higher educational context. Our interdisciplinary team investigates LA tools that leverage students’ academic success by acquiring or developing self-regulated learning skills. We adopted a Human-Centred Learning Analytics (HCLA) approach involving students, teachers, and other educational stakeholders in the iterative design of our LA tools. This article contributes to the discussion on how to design LA tools using a human-centred approach. We describe the analysis, design, implementation, and evaluation process of three LA tools comprised in our students’ dashboard, i.e., the planner, the activity graph, and the learning diary. In addition, we present key results gained in several empirical studies which had an implication on the tools’ design. Finally, we provide insights about our experience with the HCLA approach, pointing out benefits and limitations in practice.

[publication] Perspective Chapter: Implementation of MOOCs for Microcredentials and European University Alliances #imoox #mooc #unite!

We are happy that we can announce our newest contribution for our UNITE! alliance titled „Perspective Chapter: Implementation of MOOCs for Microcredentials and European University Alliances„:

Abstract:
MOOCs are seen as an important measure to open up universities to new target groups. In this chapter, two new variants of the usage of MOOCs in European higher education are highlighted: First, openly licensed MOOCs can be used as part of microcredential offers with university accreditation. Second, openly licensed MOOCs can be made available to other universities as an integrated resource and offer within European University alliances. This chapter discusses legal (such as copyright issues), organizational (such as processes), and technical issues (such as LTI, eduGAIN) for these new developments. An important requirement for this is that MOOCs are available as open educational resources (OER): Open licenses that allow the reuse, modification, and republication of educational resources (“open education resources”) are another opportunity to open up and share university offers. This chapter is based on experiences of the national Austrian MOOC platform iMooX.at, the microcredential implementation of Graz University of Technology, as well as first ideas concerning the integration of openly licensed MOOCs within the unite! University alliance of nine European technical universities.

[publication] Erfahrungen bei Studienstart und Aktivitäten der Universitäten zu MOOCs in Österreich #zfhe #mooc #imoox

Zusammen mit meinen Kolleg:innen haben wir einen Beitrag zu „Erfahrungen bei Studienstart und Aktivitäten der Universitäten zu MOOCs in Österreich“ verfasst, der nun im Rahmen der Zeitschrift für Hochschulentwicklung 18/1 publiziert wurde:

Zusammenfassung:
Im Beitrag werden die Verbreitung und Nutzung von „Massive Open Online Courses“ (MOOCs) an österreichischen Hochschulen aus der Perspektive von Studierenden und Universitäten skizziert. Dazu wurden zwei Analysen durchgeführt. (1) Zum einen wurden Studienanfänger:innen der TU Graz zu ihren Erfahrungen mit Online-Kursen befragt (N=1.207). Die Ergebnisse zeigen einen deutlichen Zuwachs der Online-Lernvorerfahrungen, insbesondere im Vergleich vor und nach COVID-19. Zum anderen erfolgte (2) eine Analyse der aktuellen Leistungsvereinbarungen aller öffentlichen österreichischen Universitäten. Die Nennung der Begriffe MOOCs bzw. iMooX.at in mehr als der Hälfte der Leistungsvereinbarungen verdeutlicht den zunehmenden Stellenwert von MOOCs.
