Learning Analytics

Learning Analytics is the measurement, collection, analysis, and reporting of data about learners and their contexts, with the purpose of understanding and optimizing learning and the environments in which it occurs. Formally introduced by George Siemens and Phil Long in 2011, the approach draws on data generated in digital learning environments to provide educators, institutions, and learners with evidence-based feedback for improving educational outcomes.
