How learning analytics support wellbeing
Learning analytics bring together key indicators of engagement into a single, consistent view. Attendance, online activity, assessment submissions and other engagement metrics are combined to help staff understand changes in a student’s learning behaviour.
Using filters, metrics and traffic light indicators, staff can:
- Identify students whose engagement has dropped
- Review changes in behaviour in context
- Prioritise support based on clear, consistent criteria
- Control access to share sensitive information with confidence
- Hold more informed and empathetic conversations
This shared visibility ensures that wellbeing teams and academic staff can take a coordinated, sensitive approach to student support.
