Exploring Online Students' Self-Regulated Learning with Self-Reported Surveys and Log Files: A Data Mining Approach
Cho, Moon-Heum; Yoo, Jin Soung
Interactive Learning Environments, v25 n8 p970-982 2017
Many researchers who are interested in studying students' online self-regulated learning (SRL) have heavily relied on self-reported surveys. Data mining is an alternative technique that can be used to discover students' SRL patterns from large data logs saved on a course management system. The purpose of this study was to identify students' online SRL patterns with the use of data mining techniques. We examined both self-reported self-regulation surveys and log files to predict online students' achievements and found using log files was more powerful in predicting students' achievements in an online course than self-reported survey data. Discussions to enhance teaching and learning practices with the use of data mining are provided.
