Proposal of application of process mining to evaluate the learning routes of students with visual disability in online courses

Abstract:

The successful completion of an online course by students with some type of disability is directly related to the inclusion or not of accessibility criteria. Web applications, and in particular online courses, are made up of a number of components whose objective is to make it easier for users to navigate. The exclusion of accessibility criteria in the design of these components can become learning barriers for students with some type of disability. In the literature reviewed, several works related to the analysis of accessibility problems in virtual educational environments have been identified. However, there is little research linked to the analysis of learning routes followed by people with some type of disability. In this project, it is proposed to apply educational data mining and process mining tools to detect potentially dangerous points in the learning routes followed by this group of students.
