Description

Resources
In this Learning Analytics Community of Practice (LACOP) workshop, Chemistry Principal Lecturer Tara Carpenter will share early results from her learning analytics mini-grant to see if and how students continue the habit of using “spaced practice” in CHEM 351 “Organic Chemistry” during Fall ‘21 – after they learned it in her Spring ‘21 CHEM 102 course.

Designed to discourage students from cramming for high stakes exams, spaced practice encourages regular, smaller chunks of study & practice focused on promoting long-term proficiency and retention. To do so, Carpenter leveraged adaptive learning in her CHEM 102 course, and will share data and findings, including student survey results from her pedagogical approach. FYI: The next round of Learning Analytics “Mini-grant” proposals will be due 5/27/22.

Also, this workshop is part of a Spring 22 series about data science and learning analytics for the UMBC community. More information.
