  • Abstract
    One of the most challenging issues in learning analytics is the development of techniques and tools that facilitate the evaluation of the learning activities carried out by learners. In this paper, we faced this issue through a process mining-based platform, called Soft Learn, that is able to discover complete, precise and simple learning paths from event logs. This platform has a graphical interface that allows teachers to better understand the real learning paths undertaken by learners.
