Benefits that students will value
A more personalised approach that provides enhanced support for every student.
A learning analytics solution offers deeper insight so that staff can provide individually tailored support and more personalised learning. Learning outcomes improve, student harm is reduced and mental and emotional wellbeing can be better supported.
Students can take control of their own learning using the study goal app to monitor their activity, set themselves goals and benchmark their progress.

We’re proud to be a thought leader and an innovator in the edtech arena and we’re already working on fresh ways to use data to improve student experience and help our members to achieve their strategic goals. Have a look at our latest innovation projects.
“[In the future]…we’ll be taking all that we’re getting from learning analytics and tying it into a much clearer understanding of how best to teach students. Modern techniques are changing – they’re more student-driven and we’ll be able to judge that using learning analytics.”
Dr Christine Couper, University of Greenwich
