LITE Work in Progress (WiP) seminar: myPAL – co-designing a learning analytics tool for students

Tamsin Treasure-Jones, Leeds Institute of Medical Education, and Vania Dimitrova, School of Computing

myPAL is developing a student-facing learning analytics tool, that presents students with their personal learning data – assessments, feedback, resource usage – in one place and supports them in reflecting on their learning and then action planning.

This forms part of the School of Medicine’s educational strategy to support positive learning behaviour change in our students and to prepare them for a workplace in which lifelong learning and continued professional development is essential

The aim of this seminar is: introduce the myPAL vision, current developments and research plan and to get feedback from colleagues on the approach and the design decisions that have been made so far. Also to discuss with colleagues whether systems such as this would also be relevant for their students and to explore possibilities to work with colleagues from other Schools.

Time: 12:30pm

Venue: Edward Boyle library , research room 1

This series of lunch-time talks captures a small selection of the innovative pedagogic research and projects currently being undertaken on campus. They also provide a forum for discussion and networking, and are open to all.

Seminars will be added and communicated as they are confirmed.

Lunch is provided
