During the program, Associate Professor Rwitajit Majumdar presented on the application of Learning Analytics in education, as well as focused on the LA-ReflecT platform, a system designed to promote reflective teaching practice, or Reflective Practice, of lecturers and support self-regulated learning for students. 

 

“The goal is to empower teachers through data-driven insights that help improve teaching in a scientifically sound way,” Majumdar said of Learning Analytics and LA-ReflecT. The LA-ReflecT platform allows teachers to create short, focused “micro-learning” activities, while the system’s dashboard provides both learners and teachers with tools to explore, continuously adjust, and analyze engagement. The speaker also emphasized that the platform helps learners gain a better understanding of the learning resources provided in the classroom. 

 

Workshop attendees were able to test LA-ReflecT first-hand with two key features: (1) eye-tracking that analyzes the learner’s focus and (2) ChatGPT that evaluates interaction patterns on the interface. The system provides real-time feedback to personalize learning.

 

 

During the discussion, Associate Professor Rwitajit Majumdar shared how to promote technology application in the classroom using evidence from his research at Kyoto University in 2020 with 2,000 students. Speaker 1 also affirmed that technology is only successful when it is accepted by both lecturers and learners, as well as supported by policies from management levels. The questions and discussions of the attendees were answered specifically by the speaker, providing many practical perspectives.

 

 

The scientific seminar by Assoc. Prof. Rwitajit Majumdar is the starting activity for a series of academic activities of the Faculty of Applied Sciences, promising a year 2025 with many breakthroughs in training, science and technology and internationalization.
