7. THREE EVALUATIONS • with CS students • ICWL 2010 paper: “Visualizing Activities for Self-reﬂection and Awareness” • with CGIAR courses and teachers • with Learning and Knowledge Analytics course participants 6 Thursday 8 December 11

8. 2010 PAPER • usability and user satisfaction evaluation with 12 CS students • in general, people understand the visualizations well! • solved some issues and requests since Thursday 8 December 11

12. METHODOLOGY. • design-based research: give students & teachers a tool and evaluate • usability studies • paper mockups • surveys 8 Thursday 8 December 11

13. CASE STUDY • 20 persons: 3 CGIAR, 2 Law, 8 CS teachers & 7 CS TA’s. • An online survey about usefulness, teacher issues and how the tool can resolve these. • on average: 40 mins are spent using SAM. 9 Thursday 8 December 11

14. CGIAR CASE STUDY issue for teacher addressed Provide feedback to the students ✔ ? Being aware of what students are doing ✔ ✔ Knowing about collaboration and communication ✔ ✗ Knowing which documents are used and how much ✔ ✔ Knowing how and when online tools have been used ? ✔ Finding the students who are not doing well ✔ ? Finding the best students ? ? Knowing how much time students spent ? ✔ Knowing if external learning resources are used ✔ ? 10 Thursday 8 December 11
