Together with Behnam Taraghi, Anna Saranti and Sandra Schön we discussed and broad together what makes learning analytics smart – from our perspectives and experiences with some years of work (and several publications). Here your will find the whole publication or simply summarized as figure:
Abstract:
Learning Analytics (LA) is an emerging field; the analysis of a large amount of data helps us to gain deeper insights into the learning process. This contribution points out that pure analysis of data is not enough. Building on our own experiences from the field, seven features of smart learning analytics are described. From our point of view these features are aspects that should be considered while deploying LA.

In the realm of Learning Analytics (LA), where data analysis illuminates the learning process, it's evident that mere data crunching falls short. Drawing from extensive research spanning several years, our collaborative effort with Behnam Taraghi, Anna Saranti, and Sandra Schön has identified seven pivotal features that define smart learning analytics. These features encapsulate essential considerations for LA implementation. Just as in the game Shattered Pixel Dungeon (https://games.lol/shattered-pixel-dungeon/), where strategic decisions shape the outcome, these features guide educators and institutions in making informed choices. In a digital age where security is paramount, they also underscore the importance of safeguarding against threats like why someone might open a bank account in your name. https://brainwavetrail.com/how-to-find-bank-accounts-in-my-name/
