This course is an interdisciplinary qualification program for educators that was developed as part of the project "Learning Analytics - Students in Focus".
This MOOC examines the use of learning analytics in higher education and aims to support student-oriented teaching development. The possibilities and limitations of technology in a higher education didactic context, along with the use of methods and tools in learning analytics, are examined in detail. This includes the analysis of learning activities, identification of learning needs and problems, as well as visualization of learning activities. Participants will learn how to collect and process data from various sources and how to integrate learning analytics into their teaching methods and strategies to improve the quality of teaching. This will enable them to comprehensively interpret the data and draw didactically relevant conclusions. Additionally, data protection and ethical aspects are central to the use of learning analytics in higher education and are also covered in this course.
This MOOC is aimed at higher education educators who wish to better understand students' learning processes and optimize their teaching based on the use of learning analytics. Additionally, it is targeted towards higher education didactics experts and trainers who support educators in using learning analytics in their teaching.
