An overview of the LALA project

Abstract:

The LALA project (“Building Capacity to Use Learning Analytics to Improve Higher Education in Latin America”) is a project that aims at building capacity about the use of data in education for improving education in Latin America. This article presents a general overview of the LALA project including the LALA framework (as a set of guidelines, recommendations and patterns for enabling adoption of learning analytics), the adaptation of learning analytics tools (mainly three different tools used in Europe) and the pilots with learning analytics experiences. The results of this project could serve as an example for other institutions in the Latin American region or other under-represented regions to adopt Learning Analytics as part of their processes.
