Reference model supported in academic analytic for the collection and analysis of data from students and teachers

Abstract

Recently, the interest in the analysis of learning and the processes that surround it has been increasing, especially the analysis of academic processes (Academic Analytic), this methodology deals with combining techniques and predictive models in the extraction of academic-administrative data, for decision making within educational institutions. Academic Analytic is also a field in which several areas converge, from academic analysis to data mining. This document describes a reference model supported in Academic Analytic for the collection and subsequent analysis of the data of students and teachers of Universidad Libre. As part of the model, we created a software that allows the collection and subsequent analysis of data from students and teachers that are already in the information system of the educational institution; after that, different analyzes were applied to this information. The model yielded important information that served as a basis for decision making by the members of the academic community in this institution.
