Abstract

Smartphones today are ubiquitous and universally influence our everyday life. Now, they are also creating a formidable impact as educational tools. The use of the smartphone specifically for mobile learning has exponentially increased the availability of big data in education. This data can be used for conducting Learning Analytics. Learning Analytics is a powerful tool that supports learners, instructors and institutions in better predicting and understanding a learner's performance and needs. The available tools and techniques used for Learning Analytics' are often not well-defined or well represented. This research proposes a four stage Learning Analytics framework which will aid in defining and understanding all the components of Learning Analytics in a smartphone-based blended learning environment. The proposed framework will be a useful guide for setting up Learning Analytics workflow or can be used to improve an existing system.
