About LEAPS research group

LEarning Analytics and Practices in Systems - aka LEAPS - is a research group led by Prof. Dr Poquet that focuses on the use of learning analytics. Learning analytics refers to the analysis of data from educational environments that can be presented to learners, instructors, or other stakeholders to inform and improve learning and teaching practices. Our research is interdiscplinary and applied. We teach courses in the areas related to educational technology, learning analytics and artificial intelligence in education. For connecting around learning analytics, a consultation, a collaboration, or for joining the group, reach out to us:
