Abstract

Student performance over a course of an academic program can be significantly affected and positively influenced through a series of feedback processes by peers and tutors. Ideally, this feedback is structured and incremental, and as a consequence, data presents at large scale even in relatively small classes. In this paper, we investigate the effect of such processes as we analyze assessment data collected from online courses. We plan to fully analyze the massive dataset of over three and a half million granular data points generated to make the case for the scalability of these kinds of learning analytics. This could shed crucial light on assessment mechanism in MOOCs, as we continue to refine our processes in an effort to strike a balance of emphasis on formative in addition to summative assessment.
