Abstract

This workshop aims to support higher education institutions to develop learning analytics (LA) policies that are both context-based and evidence-based. The proposed workshop will comprise of two sessions. The first session will include a number of presentations that introduce the SHEILA policy framework developed by a cross-European project and the research findings that have informed this framework. The second session will invite participants to take part in small groups to reflect on the state of LA adoption in their institutional contexts, and to use the SHEILA policy framework to draft an institutional policy that considers key action points for LA adoption and addresses identified challenges. The contribution of the workshop will be to increase the scalability and sustainability of LA through policy development.
