abstract |
There is a well-established literature examining the relationships between epistemology
(the nature of knowledge), pedagogy (the nature of learning and teaching), and assessment.
Learning Analytics (LA) is a new assessment technology and should engage with this
literature since it has implications for when and why different LA tools might be
deployed. This paper discusses these issues, relating them to an example construct,
epistemic beliefs – beliefs about the nature of knowledge – for which analytics grounded
in pragmatic, sociocultural theory might be well placed to explore. This example is
particularly interesting given the role of epistemic beliefs in the everyday knowledge
judgements students make in their information processing. Traditional psychological
approaches to measuring epistemic beliefs have parallels with high stakes testing
regimes; this paper outlines an alternative LA for epistemic beliefs which might be
readily applied to other areas of interest. Such sociocultural approaches afford opportunity
for engaging LA directly in high quality pedagogy. |
