Talk: Advancing Learning Analytics: Insights from Trace and Survey Data on Self-Regulated Learning
Abstract: Measurement plays a pivotal role in advancing learning analytics research, especially on self-regulated learning. Self-reported instruments, particularly surveys, have traditionally been the primary source of knowledge on self-regulated learning. Recently, as technology continually advances, researchers have increasingly incorporated trace data into their studies. In this dynamic phase, what we now require are in-depth discussions and practices on how to select and design these measurements to ensure a valid and comprehensive understanding of self-regulated learning. In this talk, I will discuss research approaches of comparing and complementing trace data and survey data for holistic understanding of self-regulated learning. Drawing from my own studies, I will demonstrate how these approaches can contribute to advancement of theory and methodology within the field of learning analytics.
