Abstract

The article reports the findings of a Group Concept Mapping study that was conducted within the framework of the Learning Analytics Summer Institute (LASI) in the Netherlands. Learning Analytics are expected to be beneficial for students and teacher empowerment, personalization, research on learning design, and feedback for performance. The study depicted some management and economics issues and identified some possible treats. No differences were found between novices and experts on how important and feasible are changes in education triggered by Learning Analytics.
