Adaptive or Adapted To: Sequence and Reflexive Thematic Analysis to Understand Learners' Self-Regulated Learning in an Adaptive Learning Analytics Dashboard

British Journal of Educational Technology, v54 n1 p98-125 Jan 2023
The real-time and granularized learning information and recommendations available from adaptive learning technology can provide learners with feedback that is personalized. However, at an individual level, learners often experience technological and pedagogical conflicts. Learners have more freedom to accept, ignore or reject the feedback while also having the challenges of building learning strategies and utilizing learning information that requires self-regulated learning skills. Given the conflicts, both understanding how learners learn and providing support for learners to be more self-regulated in the learning environment are imperative. This investigation explores how learners processed their learning in an adaptive technology-integrated learning analytics dashboard (ALAD). It employed mixed-methods using a lens of self-regulated learning (SRL). Three groups were identified based on clustering analysis of the learners' usage of warm-up (WU) tests. Sequence analysis revealed the time trends of each group's interactions with course content. Reflexive thematic analysis brought insights on how learners built their learning strategies (eg, ways of using WU tests and submodule assessments) and how they monitored and controlled their learning. It showed their dynamic interactions with core adaptive learning analytics dashboard elements. Challenges such as difficulties in rehearsing and monitoring through segmented course content arose from the new structural changes. We suggest the need of future improvement to individual learning support through the learning analytics dashboard to be more diverse and dynamic (real-time) over the course of learning while reducing potential undesirable consequences.
