Analysing emotions to personalise learning for EduOpen Moocs’ students
No full textIn this paper we analyse the emotional experience of students in 11 courses within EduOpen
(www.eduopen.org), an international Moocs’ platform. The main theoretical idea is that communities of
inquiry (Garrison, Anderson, & Archer, 2000) are digital learning experiences characterized by an emotional
dimension strongly impacting on learning (Cleveland-Innes, & Campbell., 2012). Our methodological approach
refers to the field of qualitative learning analytics (ibidem; Loperfido, Dipace, Scarinci, in press), which connects
the attention to the personalization of learning with the understanding of the students’ experience from a
microlevel point of view. Therefore, we connect the use of the general sentiment analysis, which looks at both
negative and positive feelings, with Grounded theory approach, which looks at specific emotions. Through a
bottom up process and Nvivo 11 Plus software, we analysed the forum dedicated to the students’ selfpresentation
from all of the 11 courses. We defined a set of categories composed by a three-levels system. At
a general level, we have the macrodimensions “Sentiment about EduOpen” and “Emotions toward topics”.
Each of these dimensions is composed by a number of “child” categories and subcategories. After defining the
entire set of categories and categorizing all the texts (which was a circular process), we run some graphs on
Nvivo showing the hierarchical structure of dimensions, the relations among dimensions and sources, and the
clusters of dimensions by coding similarity. Results show how some courses are more composed by negative
or positive sentiments and how the motivations dimension heavily characterizes the emotional dimension of
students
