Abstract

The data created as a byproduct of the functioning of a learning management system (LMS) have been made available to administrators of LMSes through multiple channels on Instructure's Canvas LMS. One of these channels is the packaged “Reports” function in the Admin section, which enables users to download data tables based on formal terms of the academic calendar (all terms, fall, spring, summer, and others). This work explores some highlights from select extracted eras (time periods) of a live LMS instance at Kansas State University. This chapter includes the first term out of the gate for the LMS, public courses and recently deleted ones during the fall/spring/summer sessions during the LMS lifespan, learning tools interoperability (LTI) reports in the LMS instance, competencies, and other insights. Various contemporary data analytics methods are applied to extract meanings from this time-based data.
