Abstract :
Learning analytics can give powers to teachers and learners to optimize their teaching and learning. This paper presents the design and implementation of learning analytics system for teachers and students based on a special LMS -- THEOL LMS, which is commonly used in blended learning in universities and colleges. The technical architecture of learning analytics system for teachers and students is different from for managers and researchers because of the difference of the requirements. For helping teachers and learners improve their teaching and learning, the primary aim of the THEOL learning analytics system includes: can collect data from THEOL LMS and show analysis results in THEOL LMS, supports all the teachers and learners in the THEOL LMS system, has the flexibility to do individual data analysis for expert users, can give the analysis result online and on time.
