What are learning analytics? How do you use them? And how do you evaluate which features you’ll need to help your students succeed? If you teach, you should be able to make sense of learning analytics. And decide what’s useful to you. You just need to ask the right questions.

Institutions have access to more student data than ever before—but it's hard to really grasp what that means, since many of the digital tools that colleges use are from third parties or companies that keep their algorithms private. That makes it hard for students, professors or even journalists to get a glimpse inside.

"Institutions have access to more student data than ever before—but it's hard to really grasp what that means, since many of the digital tools that colleges use are from third parties or companies that keep their algorithms private. That makes it hard for students, professors or even journalists to get a glimpse inside. That didn’t stop Bryan Short, who was a student at the University of British Columbia in 2016 when he got curious to know what information the learning management system at his university had collected on him and how it was being used. And what he found—that is, once he got a hold of it—left him feeling pretty uneasy."

The premise is fairly simple: If colleges or universities could just identify students most at risk of failing a required course based on a predictive model, faculty and advisers could reach out and lend helping hands. But the road to student success in higher education is often pitted with potholes.

Kim Flintoff's insight:
"Every time a student interacts with your Learning Management System, another piece of data is created and collected. Every login, button click, chat entry, assessment, and time stamp is tracked and recorded. Many Instructional Designers don’t take full advantage of this data—but with learning analytics (LA), you can use that data in powerful ways to impact not only your course design, but much more."
