A process mining approach to understand self regulated-learning in moodle environment

Abstract

This paper proposes the use of Fuzzy Miner, a process mining technique to map the student-regulated learning (SRL) behaviour on Moodle online learning environment. The activity logs from 90 undergraduate students was extracted using the process mining technique. Finding shows process mining was able not only to identify the SRL patterns but also able to highlight the students’ SRL behaviour. Understanding the cyclical nature in SRL and the students’ SRL behavior online as outlined in this study would help the educational stakeholders in motivating the students’ efforts to learn.
