The course originally centered on classic (and some contemporary) memoirs; however, responding to student evaluations, newer material…
Identifying needs for learning analytics adoption in Latin American universities
Adoption and impact of a learning analytics dashboard supporting the advisor—Student dialogue in a higher education institute in Latin America
This paper presents a case study on the adoption and the impact of new modules in a learning analytics dashboard supporting the dialogue between student advisors and students when advising on a study plan for the next academic semester in Escuela Superior Politecnica del Litoral, a higher education institute in Ecuador.

Adaptation and evaluation of a learning analytics dashboard to improve academic support at three Latin American universities
Despite the success of academic advising dashboards in several higher educational institutions (HEI), these dashboards are still under‐explored in Latin American HEI's.

In all three cases, the context was the main ruling factor to these adaptations. In this paper, we describe these adapt…
