This Community of Practice presentation explores some of the foundational concepts related to learning analytics. We discuss how the analysis of learner data can be used to help instructors take a proactive approach to learner assessment, feedback, and guidance; an approach that aligns and inspires data-informed decision-making, informing future pedagogical action and intervention in the spirit of continuous enhancement.
