Breadth and depth of learning analytics

This paper presents a learning analytics system that has been extended to address multiple domains (writing and coding) for a breadthwise expansion. The system has also been infused with analytics solutions targeting competence, grade prediction and regulation traits, thus offering deeper insights. Our experiences in extending the breadth and depth of the analytics system have been discussed. The discussion includes elaboration on two types of sensors to track the writing and the coding experiences of students. The design of a dashboard for teachers to monitor the performance of their classrooms and advocate regulation activities is also included. The discussions lean more on the side of teachers, parents, and administrators, than on the side of students.
