ABC Learning Gains

A project between the Open University, Oxford Brookes University and the University of Surrey undertaking a longitudinal mixed method study of learning gain.

Interesting findings by @ESRC_IDEAS, on the WhatsApp use among African IDE students. Read more on, https://t.co/yzs5CDlBKE, a paper that draws on analysis of 1295 online questionnaires and 165 in-depth interviews with IDE students at @unisa. #DefineTomorrow

Measuring #learninggain in Brazil: larger subject-specific gains than general knowledge gains. What you focus on in the curriculum is reflected in what students learn. But what you choose to measure is a political decision

@rjsharpe argues against #learninggains in the @ABCLearningGains debate

[Dr Lesley Boyd @lesleyboyd]

⁦@allisonl⁩ has just kicked off the #learninggains debate ⁦@IETatOU⁩ for the Blue Team, that Learning Gains is an important concept in UK Higher Education. The emerging arguments between Blue and Orange are turning out to be quite fundamental and entertaining at once

[Dr Chrysoula Mangafa @ChrissyMangafa]

@LearningGains can learning gains be measured? Blue team argues that we need to find more subtle ways to measure learning gains in and out of the classroom.

Christina Hughes- 1. Learning is not linear (student confidence drops) 2. Subject level is more significant than institutional level (signature pedagogies) 3. Methodological rigour (little analysis of peer-effect) #learninggain

Biggest misconception about learning analytics according @DrBartRienties @OpenUniversity "That we are mining students’ and teachers’ data just to save costs and replace people with robots. Learning is complex and requires personal care." https://t.co/AsifSLdOsW
