Learning Analytics Dashboard for Teaching with Twitter

Abstract: As social media takes root in our society, more University instructors are incorporating platforms like Twitter into their classroom. However, few of the current Learning Analytics (LA) systems process social media data for instructional interventions and evaluation. As a result, instructors who are using social media cannot easily assess their students' learning progress or use the data to adjust their lessons in real time. We surveyed 54 university instructors to better understand how they use social media i… Show more

“…Much of the research on online education has focused on understanding the best methods for formal online courses to convey information, engage students, and achieve learning outcomes, aiming to initiate and improve educational and learning outcomes (e.g., Andrews and Haythornthwaite 2007;Haythornthwaite et al 2016;Haythornthwaite and Gruzd, 2012). However, with increasing evidence of day-to-day learning online, research on social media and learning is rapidly expanding (Chugh and Ruhi 2018;Gruzd et al 2018;Gruzd and Conroy 2020;Paulin and Gilbert 2016). As summed up by Hoadley and Kali (2019, p. 30) about learning in a networked society, '[t]he understanding that social scientists glean from the study of spontaneous technology-enhanced communities is a powerful force in directing our attention to learning that may occur incidentally within online communities … offering new interpretations of learner interactions and inspiring new ways to conceive of designed learning environments'.…”
