Learning Analytics for Awareness and Reflection
Awareness and reflection are viewed differently across the disciplines informing Technology-
Enhanced Learning (CSCW, psychology, educational sciences, computer science and oth-
ers). The ARTEL workshop series brings together researchers and professionals from dif-
ferent backgrounds to provide a forum for discussing the multi-faceted area of awareness
and reflection. 2016 was the 6th workshop in this series.
Through the last ARTEL workshops at EC-TEL the topic has gained maturity and ques-
tions addresses are converging towards the usage of awareness and reflection in practice,
its implementation in modern organisations, its impact on learners and questions of feasi-
bility and sustainability for awareness and reflection in education and work. To reflect the
growing maturity of research in ARTEL over the years in conjunction with the latest trends
in TEL, this year’s topic particularly invited contributions that deal with the contribution
and impact of Learning Analytics on awareness and reflection. The motto of the workshop
this year was:
’Learning Analytics for Awareness and Reflection: How can Learning Ana-
lytics methodologies and tools support awareness and reflection in different
learning contexts?’
Summary of the contributions
The #ARTEL16 workshop accepted two full papers, and four short papers. The accepted
papers discuss awareness and reflection according to three themes.
Three papers focused on the theme learning analytics, visualisation and dashboards for
awareness and reflection.
The full paper ’Designing Generic Visualisations for Activity Log Data’ written by Granit
Luzhnica, Angela Fessl, Eduardo Veas, Belgin Mutlu, and Viktoria Pammer aims at an
important issue in lifelong and professional learning that is how to visualize log data from
various resources in a generic way without knowing in advance concrete analytic tasks.
The authors have implemented a tool, called Vis-Tool. The presented evaluation compares
Vis-Tool with three specific applications, considering ten evaluation tasks. The results
show possible benefits of Vis-Tool.
The short paper ’Reflection Analytics in Online Communities: Guiding Users to become
active in Collaborative Reflection’ of Oliver Blunk, Michael Prilla, and Graham Attwell
describes a prototype visualisation that aims at supporting the awareness of students about
group activity in the context of reflective online group collaborative work.
The short paper Visualizing Online (Social) Learning Processes - Designing a Dashboard
to Support Reflection’ co-authored by Darya Hayit, Tobias Hölterhof, Martin Rehm, Oskar
Carl, and Michael Kerres provides an overview of a prototype dashboard for visualising
social learning processes.

Awareness and reflection workshop series
Two papers were accepted that provide a perspective on collaborative/social reflection and
reflection in the workplace.
The short paper ’E-portfolio for Awareness and Reflection in a Blended Learning Envi-
ronment’ written by Morin Roa, Eliana Scheihing, Julio Daniel Guerra, and Carlos Blaña
presents research about an e-portfolio used for awareness and reflection within a blended
learning community. The e-portfolio has been evaluated by members of this community
in terms of its usability and usefulness.
Tracie Farrell Frey, George Gkotsis, and Alexander Mikroyannidis present in their short
paper ’Are you Thinking what I’m Thinking? Representing Metacognition with Question-
based Dialogue’ an early prototype and background literature for a tool to create represen-
tational artefacts of metacognitive thinking in a collaborative, social environment.
The third theme of the workshops was about literature reviews and theoretical contribu-
tions to awareness and reflection.
The short paper ’Considering Self-Efficacy in Reflection’ by Birgit Krogstie and John
Krogstie discusses the relationship between self-efficacy and reflective learning. The au-
thors argue that as self-efficacy is instrumental in shaping the experiences a person actu-
ally generates, and experience is the ’object’ of reflective learning, self efficacy needs to
be considered in designing the reflection activity.
