Outline of Final Research Achievements

We investigated LTI, which is a fundamental technology for realizing dashboard on LMS, and developed several systems using it. The problems and other issues were discussed. One year's log data from the author's university LMS was used to visualize and characterize the course and We proposed a method to determine the active course, quantitatively. The resulting 843 active courses were subjected to various types of visualization trials. The effects were examined. We also used the same data to classify the courses. In the previous studies, we have not found the analysis, characterization, and categorization in detail for the entire server. The fact that many findings were obtained is a major achievement of this study.
