This is very cool - but I have to say I am disappointed on the amount of time I have devoted to the course - hoping to see my line take an upward trend over the next week!

I think you hit the nail on the head here Peter with this:
What will the learner be able to do/ do better/ contribute more, etc., what benefits will the comapny gain?
In the corporate world learning analytics has to tie to the return on investment for training - why would a commercial entity do it otherwise?

Hey Jeff,
I liked this paper. Nice easy intro to the area. One thing I didn't get was in section 2 when Baker discusses the differences between EDM and DM in general. He mentions that EDM has to account for multi-level hierarchy - any ideas what he is talking about here. Is it pre-requisite relationships in concepts or is it the hierarchical element found in the classroom in terms of students and teachers?
Any ideas?

Hello all,
I am Mark from Dublin, Ireland.
I work for an e-learning company which specialises in open source software solutions to e-learning needs. I am really interested in starting to make good educational software and I think that the only way to do that is to know the learner. The question is why not ask them what they want/need - sometimes what is pedagogically best for the learner is not what they want - so we need to figure it out. Maybe I should save this for a blog post...
Anyway - I am into this since completing my PhD in the area which looked at using Model Driven Software Engineering methods and technologies to validate e-learning courses.
Looking forward to learning from you all!
