Beyond the MOOCs…

a special status at
the moment in
innovating pedagogy:

The MOOC hype cycle
A very slow tsunami: projection of the Hype Cycle for MOOCs by Jonathan Tapson, University of Western Sydney http://pandodaily.com/2013/09/13/moocs-and-the-gartner-hype-cycle-a-very-slow-tsunami/

In this situation we should "move policy thinking (…) towards actively shaping market conditions to enable the full flourishing of the newly installed technological potential into what can be a sustainable global golden age" Carlota Perez (referring to the financial crisis)

Main message Xavier Prats-Monne of the EC
“What can MOOCs do?” is not relevant any longer; rather, we have to ask "What should MOOCs do?”
Will affect higher education and that the traditional educational map must be redrawn with other structures, colors, models, pedagogy, organization, management

Challenges to develop Learning Analytics
…that start with questions, not data
What problems could analytics help to solve?
What will learners and educators gain?
How will the analytics support positive change?
Ossiannilsson 2014
Rationals to use Learning Analytics Learners
Monitor their own activities, interactions and learning process
Compare their activity with that of others
Increase awareness, reflect and self-reflect
Improve discussion and participation
Learning behaviour and performance
Become better learners, and
…to learn
Sharples et al. Innovating Pedagogy 2013
Rationals to use Learning Analytics Educators/ResearchersMonitor the learning process
Explore student data
Identify problems
Discover patterns
Find early indicators for success, poor marks or drop-out
Assess usefulness of learning materials
Increase awareness, reflect and self-reflect
Increase understanding of
learning environments
Intervene, supervise, advise and assist, and…
Improve teaching, resources and
the environment

Sharples et al. Innovating Pedagogy 2013
Rationals to use Learning Analytics Organizations
Local, regional and national educational progress…to be measured and improved
Students interactions online and with courseware/when and what

Allocate resources
Assess effectiveness
Personalized learning paths
Behaviour specific data
NMC 2014
Timescale
Most current analytics focus on data about the past, reporting what has happened
Other analytics link the present situation with a predicted future; using forecasts and predictive modelling to identify indicators of success, failure or student drop out
A preferable approach, linking learning analytics and learning design, will be the use of analytics to support educators and learners to produce a desired future result
Sharples et al. Innovating Pedagogy 2013
Learning Analytics
…Infrastructure and frameworks in place for learning analytics is increasingly important
New trend
…Social learning analytics, including tools to help people develop ideas together through discussion and writing
...Data from the physical environment, including gestures and both eye tracking and sensor data.
This information can be used to monitor attention,
engagement and emotional state
Future data policies will need to…Involve learners in the processes of developing and acting on analytics
Involve learners in the processes of developing and acting on analytics
Allow them a say in how they are labelled
Make clear the responsibilities everyone involved has for providing accurate data and for acting on recommendations
…learning and teaching ethics committees alongside pre-existing research ethics committees, in order to safeguard educators and learners from issues such as mislabelling, misleading analytics and pressure to share sensitive data

Learning design/Learning Analytics
“a virtuous circle, where inquiry into the learning process feeds into learning design, which motivates learning analytics”
