Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Learning environments provide extensive logging capabilities that document learner activities. Careful interpretation of these logs can be used for quality assurance and student evaluation. We present a logfile processor that reads Toolbook logfiles and collects data for determining “hot spots” (i.e. particularly good or bad spots) in a course or in learner behaviour. Hot spots show up as extreme values during the analysis; they are candidates to be looked at by instructional design experts. The logfile processor’s methods for data collection can be customised using an event mechanism. Its output — either flat ASCII or structured XML — is further analysed: We present exemplary diagrams based on logfiles from a sample course.
