Extended Abstract
Institutions are using all sorts of data to predict student outcomes and intervene when a student appears to be at risk. However, at most institutions, there’s something fundamental missing from this data: students’ engagement with assigned learning materials. Research shows that successful students read early and often, but instructors often have no visibility into these behaviors. Join VitalSource as we showcase how analytics tools can help instructors to better understand student engagement in real time, and how hey can use this data to modify instruction, counsel at-risk students, and understand how their assigned learning materials are used by students.
