Overview

Mediasite offers analytics is an integrated service within the Mediasite Data platform, but the feature is not widely known or used by faculty. At a time when learning analytics data is becoming more and more important to academia, faculty disinterest in Mediasite data made me curious to understand why faculty might not be inclined to use the feature. My curiosity led to proposing an investigation of the service for this project, which was accepted by Mediasite in mid-June. The original project proposed to evaluate and present findings on a faculty analytics dashboard, but that work was amended to include a proposal for a student facing dashboard after the first presentation meeting.

Project goals

  • Assess Mediasite Dashboard dataset
  • Propose changes to make the data more valuable to faculty
  • Propose data points and a delivery method for a Mediasite student facing analytics dashboard.
  • Identify and document ways to improve collaborative learning toolset in Mediasite.
  • Develop icons to show engagement and assignment completion for analytics dashboards
