  • 1. Introduction
    THE UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS Code of Practice on Learning Analytics 1. Introduction Learning Analytics is defined as follows: "the measurement, collection, analysis, and reporting of data about learners and their contexts, for the purposes of understanding and optimising learning and the environments in which it occurs." (International Conference on Learning Analytics, 2011). The University of Leeds has adopted this definition for the purposes of this Code of Practice and the Learning Analytics Strategy. The University of Leeds uses learning analytics to enhance taught student education and support student success for registered students. The University will use learning analytics to: (i) support individual learners – through actional intelligence for students, teachers and professional staff; (ii) help understand cohort behaviours and outcomes; (iii) help understand and enhance the learning environment. This means that we will gather and analyse data relating to students’ education and present these in appropriate formats to staff and students, to support students’ learning, progress and well-being. The University recognises that data on their own cannot provide a complete picture of a student’s progress, but provide an indicative picture of progress and likelihood of success. This document sets out the responsibilities for staff, students and the University to ensure that learning analytics is carried out responsibly, transparently, appropriately and effectively, addressing the key legal, ethical and logistical issues which are likely to arise. This not only covers the presentation of learning analytics data to students and staff but also possible use in research projects and management information. It is important to note that the University currently holds and processes the data sources identified in this document.

For the full text of this licence, please go to: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by- nc-nd/2.5/ Paper More to life than Google – a journey for PhD students Ruth Stubbings and Ginny Franklin Loughborough University Abstract Loughborough University Librarians have become concerned that students, both undergraduate and postgraduate, over estimate their information literacy skills. Students therefore lack motivation to attend and interact during information literacy courses. This paper outlines how Loughborough University Library has tried to encourage postgraduate researchers to reflect on their information searching abilities through the use of checklists and online tests. Research postgraduate students then attend appropriate courses relating to their information literacy needs. Keywords Information literacy, Diagnostic tools, CAA, Postgraduate research skills. Setting the scene: PhD information literacy courses at Loughborough University Prior to 2003/2004 Loughborough University ran a PhD training programme for the Social Science and Humanities Faculty. The programme was administered by the Department of Professional Development and included a two hour compulsory workshop, which was delivered by the Library twice a year. The workshops were assessed. The Library also ran three voluntary workshops twice a year for the Faculties of Science and Engineering (Tracing journal articles, Finding research information and Keeping up-to-date), which were relatively well attended. In response to the Roberts’ review “SET for success”(2002), the University made the Professional Development research training programme available to all PhD students.
