Objectives � Study the relationship between the students’
activity in an e-learning platform and their final marks.
� Obtain some indicators to predict the students’ behaviour and results.
Dataset � Data of an e-learning platform based on Moodle of
the University of Vigo. � Three academic years of a blended subject.
Experiment steps
� Correlations: � Number of interactionsßà final mark.
� Value: 0,33
� Moodle events ßà final mark. � Most correlated events à Events related with view or
download contents or class notes.
Experiment steps
� Clustering:
Clustering Distribution Mean of the final
marks
Group 1: 145 students Group 2: 190 students
Group 1: 5.40 Group 2: 4.23
Experiment steps � Time Series of number of interactions:
Experiment steps � Temporal decomposition:
� Use the trend component as predictor.
Conclusions � The number of interactions with the e-learning platform
is related to the students’ success.
� The trend component of the temporal series analysis can be used as a predictor of students’ results.
Further work � Extend our study to other courses.
� Develop a system to trigger alarms when students are in risk of fail the subject.
Thank you!
