Future of LA
1. Social Learning Analytics
2. Integration LA with educational psychology
3. Visualising the invisible
1. Social Learning Analytics“LA is the measurement, collection, analysis and reporting of data about learners and their contexts, for purposes of understanding and optimising learning and the environments in which it occurs” (LAK 2011)
Social LA “focuses on how learners build knowledge together in their cultural and social settings” (Ferguson & Buckingham Shum, 2012)

Formal and Informal Interaction between learners and teachers crucial for learning processes and outcomes (DeCuyper et al., 2010; Giesbers, Rienties, et al., 2013; Hommes, Rienties et al, 2012; Rienties et al., 2012, 2013a, 2013b)

2. Integration LA with Ed Psy“One of the big problems around LA is the lack of clarity about what exactly should be measured to get a deeper understanding of how learning is taken place” (Duval, 2011)
“On a meta-level, LA provided exciting opportunities to ground research on learning in data and to transform it from what is currently all too often a collection of opinions and impossible-to-falsify conceptualisations and theories” (Duval, 2011)
In CSCL/CMC research (Kirschner & Erckens, 2013; Resta et al., 2009) and ED Psy (Jang, Reeve, & Deci, 2010) a wealth of evidence-based research is available how learners interact, learn and perform in online environments.
Dynamic interaction of sychronous and asychronous learning
Giesbers, B., Rienties, B., Tempelaar, D.T., Gijselaers, W. H. (2013). A dynamic analysis of the interplay between asynchronous and synchronous communication in online learning: The impact of motivation. Journal of Computer Assisted Learning. DOI: 10.1111/jcal.12020. Impact factor: 1.632.
Dynamic interaction of sychronous and asychronous learning
Intrinsic Motivation ↑ initial asynchronous contributions ↑ in asynchronous and synchronous contributions

3. Visualising the invisible
20-50% of learning cross-boundary knowledge spillovers occurs across teams (Akkerman & Bakker, 2011; Hernandez Nanclares et al. 2012; Rienties & Kinchin, Forthcoming)
30-90% of learning occurs outside formal learning setting (Hommes et al, Submitted; Rienties et al. 2013)
BUT measuring informal learning notoriously difficult

“Social”
Outcomes for HEIs1. Improved visualisations for intervention and
active behavioural change
2. Improved monitoring of social interactions
3. Richer quality of learning
