Designing a Learning Analytics Dashboard : A case study inside the Novare Potential Boot camps

Sammanfattning: Learning Analytic Dashboards have proven to help students reach their academic goals by tracking their study data to offer feedback. However, current dashboard research focuses on traditional education, such as schools and universities, rather than emerging educational sectors like coding boot camps that have different curricula and structures. Based on literature research and user experience methods, an interactive prototype was designed to help boot camp students track "hard skills" and "soft skills." Design experts and boot camp students evaluated this prototype to provide feedback about its usability and effectiveness. The study found that the students appreciated the focus on learning goals instead of tracking metrics like home completion rate or exam grades. At the same time, the polished user interface kept the students engaged. The contribution to the Learning Analytics field is the demographic data of boot camp students in Stockholm through user personas, recommendations to avoid common dashboard limitations, and suggesting ideas for further evaluation
