Abstract

Learner Management Systems (LMSs) are widely deployed across the industry as they provide a cost-saving approach that can support flexible learning opportunities. Despite their benefits, LMSs fail to cater for individual learning behavior and needs and support individualised prediction and progression. Learning Analytics (LAs) support these gaps by correlating existing learner data to provide meaningful predictive and prescriptive analysis. The industry and research community have already recognised the necessity of LAs to support modern learning needs. But a little effort has been directed towards the integration of LA into LMSs. This paper presents a novel automated Intelligence Learner Management System (iLMS) that integrates learner management and learning analytics into a single platform. The presented iLMS considers Machine Learning techniques to support learning analytics including descriptive, predictive and perspective analytics.
