Abstract

With the increase of education data, there have been many studies on the application of various analytics to improve students' performance and educational environments over the past decade. This paper first introduces the cases of universities that successfully utilize the analysis results and, more specifically, examines which data and analytical techniques are used for each analysis purpose. Based on the findings, the limitations of the current analytics and the direction of future analysis are discussed.

지난 십여 년간 학생의 학습 과정에서 생성되는 방대한 데이터를 다양한 분석기술을 적용하여 학생의 학습 성과 및 교육 환경을 개선하기 위한 관련 연구들이 활발히 진행되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 교육데이터의 분석 결과를 성공적으로 활용하고 있는 대학의 사례들을 살펴본 후, 기존 사례 연구를 통해서 보다 구체적으로 분석 목적별로 어떤 데이터와 분석 기법이 사용되는지 정리하였다. 그리고 고찰 결과를 토대로 기존 분석의 한계점 및 향후 분석 방향에 대해 제안하고자 한다.
