WLAMLD 2012 - International Workshop on Where Learning Analytics Meets Learning Design

The wealth of data available through student management systems and eLearning systems has the potential to provide faculty with important, just-in-time information that may allow them to positively intervene with struggling students and/or enhance the learning experience during the delivery of a course. This information might also facilitate post-delivery review and reflection for faculty who wish to revise course design and content. But to be effective, this data needs to be appropriate to the context or pedagogical intent of the course ? this is where learning analytics meets learning design.
In this workshop, participants will
Further develop their understanding of learning design and learning analytics
Explore how learning analytics that can support faculty during course delivery and for course review
Identify the types of learning analytics that can be useful for different learning designs
This workshop will involve:
brief overview presentations about learning design and learning analytics
participant brainstorm session about what learning analytics might support faculty during (1) course delivery and/or (2) course review
participant groups (2 to 3 participants each) working with specific learning designs to identify relevant learning analytics
