The Experience API (xAPI) allows us to collect data about any type of learning experience or activity, but does that mean we should? Should we generate massive amounts of xAPI data for every possible type of interaction and then expect to make sense of it all later? This approach can be costly in terms of data storage, but also in terms of your time.
The Experience API (xAPI for short) is far more than just an update to SCORM, the popular standard for tracking data from a learning management system. xAPI opens up a whole new world of possibilities for learning analytics. Examples of what real organizations are doing with it in real-life situations make it easier to grasp the scale of this advance and apply the learnings to your own situation.
In some cultures, the value of personal development is top of mind as it means advancement in personal prosperity. Even in our more saturated society where learning and training is often free and easy to get, it is seen as important – however, investments in learning always compete with other investments.
In this episode, we discuss the topic of measuring impact with Dr Linda Corrin from Swinburne University in Australia and Prof Bart Rienties from Open University in the UK
LMS Reporting is a crucial feature of any modern online course and it shows full advantage of Big Data nowadays. But admit it, just looking at figures and metrics is of little use.
Colleges and universities embrace the aspiration of student success yet are still grappling with big questions about how to define, measure, and structure student success, all while keeping the student at the center.
Check a discussion on the Origin Of Moodle Learning Analytics and its evolution so far so that you have a clear view regarding the importance of data today.
The emergence of learning analytics afforded for the analysis of digital traces of user interaction with technology. This analysis offers many opportunities to advance understanding and enhance learning and the environments in which learning occurs.
Webinar featuring Scott Weersing, Director of Learning Analytics at GP Strategies. You'll learn how to effectively measure your learning efforts, what to measure, and more.
This presentation explores shortcomings of learning analytics for the wide adoption in educational organisations. It is NOT about ethics and privacy rather than focuses on shortcomings of learning analytics for teachers and students in the classroom (micro-level).
The author traces how such a seemingly immutable idea as measurement proved so malleable when it collided with the subject matter of psychology. Philosophical and social influences are examined. This book traces how such a seemingly immutable idea as measurement proved so malleable when it collided with the subject matter of psychology. It locates the philosophical and social influences reshaping the concept and identifies a fundamental problem: are psychological attributes really quantitative?
A tomographic metal detection and characterization system has been designed and built for recovering information about magnetic and/or conductive objects within the detector space. This information is gathered as a result of a ‘walk-through’ scan of a candidate in the same manner as for a typical security metal detector archway. Following the passage of the candidate, the system uses measurements from an array of coils to calculate the polarizability tensor, which describes the low frequency electromagnetic characteristic of a small metallic object when it interacts with an ac magnetic field. In addition to the magnetic polarizability dyadic tensor, the position of the perturbation is also determined as a product of the inversion algorithm. The system has been tested and is capable of inverting object tensors with <20% typical parameter variation, and determines three-dimensional object location with a typical error of less than ±3 cm. In this paper, results are shown from a set of four different test object examples, each with a different magnetic polarizability tensor. This object set consists of a ferrite sphere, a ferrite rod and phantom aluminium and steel handgun shapes.
