Putting temporal analytics into practice: the 5th international workshop on temporality in learning data

Interest in temporal analytics---analytics that probe temporal aspects of learning so as to gain insights into the processes through which learning occurs---continues to grow. The relationships of temporal patterns to learning outcomes is a central area of interest. However, while the literature on temporal analyses is developing, there has been less consideration of the methods by which temporal analyses might be translated to actionable insights and thus, put into use in educational practice. Emerging temporal analysis techniques present both theoretical and practical challenges for producing and interpreting results. Synergetic actions are needed in order to support practitioners.
