Seamless Learning: Supporting Seamless Learning with a Learning Analytics Approach [This chapter explores a learning analytics approach for the implementation of a seamless learning environment. Our developed seamless learning system called VASCORLL (Visualization and Analysis System for COnnecting Relationships of Learning Logs) and AETEL (Actions and learning on E-TExtbook Logging) System will be described. AETEL, an eBook system, was implemented on top of SCROLL, another developed system of ours. VASCORLL was also implemented on SCROLL. The objectives of VASCORLL are for visualizing and analyzing the learning logs collected from SCROLL to provide learners with more learning opportunities as well as to link eBook learning and real-life learning. Two types of visualization structures, eBook learning structure and real-life learning structure, were adapted. Our research questions are (1) Is VASCORLL able to enhance learners’ learning opportunities? (2) Does it facilitate finding important words in the seamless learning environment? and (3) Which centrality is the most effective in supporting learning in the seamless learning environment? From an evaluation experiment conducted at a university in Japan, it was found that VASCORLL enhanced learning opportunities and that it was a useful tool to find central words bridging eBook learning and real-life learning when it was based on betweenness centrality. VASCORLL had a high usability, and it contributed to enhancing learners’ learning opportunities in a way that it helped users link their eBook learning with a real-life learning as well as link their learning with that of other users. The system is expected to play an important role as a tool that links both learning modes.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[This chapter explores a learning analytics approach for the implementation of a seamless learning environment. Our developed seamless learning system called VASCORLL (Visualization and Analysis System for COnnecting Relationships of Learning Logs) and AETEL (Actions and learning on E-TExtbook Logging) System will be described. AETEL, an eBook system, was implemented on top of SCROLL, another developed system of ours. VASCORLL was also implemented on SCROLL. The objectives of VASCORLL are for visualizing and analyzing the learning logs collected from SCROLL to provide learners with more learning opportunities as well as to link eBook learning and real-life learning.
