Abstract
LOPEZ FERNANDEZ, Raúl; SANCHEZ GALVEZ, Samuel; QUINTANA ALVAREZ, Moisés Ramón and GOMEZ RODRIGUEZ, Víctor Gustavo. Theoretical assessments on the concept of learning analytics. Rev. Mendive [online]. 2024, vol.22, n.1 Epub Mar 30, 2024. ISSN 1815-7696.
Learning analytics is the subject of multiple interpretations and weightings, depending on the analysis and use given to it by each scientific area. The objective of the work is to evaluate different concepts of learning analytics, formulated by various authors to provide an inclusive definition with those components that are required to be present in said concept. The research is based on a qualitative approach. It is classified as exploratory. It uses heuristic, historical-logical, analytical-synthetic, inductive-deductive methods, internal criticism, document analysis, triangulation and modeling from praxis. The results allow us to affirm that the different meanings of the concept given by the various authors, for the most part, unload their weight on the techno-pedagogical element, understood as Big Data, without sufficiently taking into account the other components that intervene in the teaching processes. educational and teaching-learning, in which the true act of learning of the student as a psycho-biological-social being occurs. It is concluded that learning analytics is essential for better management of educational institutions and, in particular, for achieving greater progress in the teaching-learning process, given that it must be complemented with qualitative data.
