Postdigital learning analytics

With the ubiquity of Learning Management Systems (LMS), Virtual Learning Environments (VLE), wearable technologies, mobile applications, and web-based platforms in education, Learning Analytics (LA) has become an appealing area to institutions and is a strong selling point for commercial products. Those promoting LA offer educators, institutions, and students’ insights into teaching and learning, to help them shape and optimise future learning experiences. However, LA also presents a range of challenges and potential ethical issues, which convey a wider reading of contemporary forces surrounding formal education.
