Learning Management System (LMS) platforms provide a wealth of information on the learning patterns of students. Learning Analytics (LA) techniques permit the analysis of the logs or records of the activities of both students and teachers on the on-line platform. The learning patterns differ depending on the type of Blended Learning (B-Learning). In this study, we analyse: (1) whether significant differences exist between the learning outcomes of students and their learning patterns on the platform, depending on the type of B-Learning [Replacement blend (RB) vs. Supplemental blend (SB)]; (2) whether a relation exists between the metacognitive and the motivational strategies (MS) of students, their learning outcomes and their learning patterns on the platform. The 87,065 log records of 129 students (69 in RB and 60 in SB) in the Moodle 3.1 platform were analyzed. The results revealed different learning patterns between students depending on the type of B-Learning (RB vs. SB). We have found that the degree of blend, RB vs. SB, seems to condition student behavior on the platform. Learning patterns in RB environments can predict student learning outcomes. Additionally, in RB environments there is a relationship between the learning patterns and the metacognitive and (MS) of the students.
学习管理系统(LMS)平台提供了大量有关学生学习模式的信息。学习分析(LA)技术允许对在线平台上学生和教师活动的日志或记录进行分析。学习模式因混合式学习(B-Learning)的类型而异。在本研究中,我们分析:(1)根据B-Learning的类型[替换混合(RB)与补充混合(SB)],学生的学习成果与其在平台上的学习模式之间是否存在显著差异;(2)学生的元认知和动机策略(MS)、他们的学习成果以及他们在平台上的学习模式之间是否存在关联。对Moodle 3.1平台上129名学生(69名在RB组和60名在SB组)的87,065条日志记录进行了分析。结果显示,根据B-Learning的类型(RB与SB),学生之间存在不同的学习模式。我们发现,混合程度,RB与SB,似乎会影响学生在平台上的行为。RB环境中的学习模式可以预测学生的学习成果。此外,在RB环境中,学习模式与学生的元认知和(MS)之间存在关联。
