Background of the Study
Learning analytics refers to the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data regarding students' learning behaviors, performance, and outcomes (Wang et al., 2023). Universities have increasingly turned to learning analytics to inform decision-making and improve educational outcomes. However, the information derived from learning analytics can often be overwhelming and difficult to interpret without proper visualization tools. AI-powered learning analytics dashboards provide administrators with a user-friendly interface to make sense of complex data, enabling more informed decisions regarding curriculum design, student support, and institutional policies (Chen et al., 2024).
Bayero University, Kano, Kano State, with its diverse student body and wide-ranging academic programs, stands to benefit from AI-driven dashboards to track and analyze key learning metrics. The implementation of such a system could provide valuable insights into student performance, retention rates, and the effectiveness of teaching methods, aiding in the university’s academic planning and development. This study seeks to design and evaluate the effectiveness of AI-based learning analytics dashboards for university administrators.
Statement of the Problem
University administrators at Bayero University, Kano, face challenges in effectively utilizing learning data to improve academic performance and institutional planning. Current methods of data analysis are often manual, time-consuming, and prone to errors. As a result, decision-making processes may not be based on accurate or timely insights. This study aims to design an AI-based learning analytics dashboard to assist university administrators in analyzing student performance data and making data-driven decisions.
