Abstract
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are the road that led to a revolution and
a new era of learning environments. Educational institutions have come under
pressure to adopt new models that assure openness in their education
distribution. Nonetheless, there is still altercation about the pedagogical
approach and the absolute information delivery to the students. On the other
side with the use of Learning Analytics, powerful tools become available which
mainly aim to enhance learning and improve learners performance. In this
chapter, the development phases of a Learning Analytics prototype and the
experiment of integrating it into a MOOC platform, called iMooX will be
presented. This chapter explores how MOOC Stakeholders may benefit from
Learning Analytics as well as it reports an exploratory analysis of some of the
offered courses and demonstrate use cases as a typical evaluation of this
prototype in order to discover hidden patterns, overture future proper
decisions and to optimize learning with applicable and convenient
interventions.
