EduPLEx_API
Educational Predictive Analytics API für personalisierte Learning Experience Plattformen
Subject of research
The basic aim of the EduPLEx_API project is a proof-of-concept for a digital learning platform that breaks new ground in the design of the learning experience. Learners are to be offered new opportunities on their journey through the learning content. This journey (including the results of the learning progress monitoring) is recorded and analysed for this purpose in the current data standard for educational platforms (xAPI). Recommendations for personalised learning opportunities are derived from the recordings. In addition to these adaptive learning paths, collaborative learning is also emphasised, which is to be integrated into the digital learning platform in a prominent position. In addition to the added value for the learners themselves, HR managers, especially in SMEs, also receive valuable information about the demand for learning formats (both target group-specific and topic-oriented) and the development of learning behaviour.
Solutions
- Development of a framework: Skills Alignment via ‘Skill Profiling’ under consideration of external ontologies (ESCO)
- Development of an LXP prototype
- Embedding the EduPLEx_API via ‘Plug & Play’ in existing learning platforms or educational marketplaces
