THE METHOD OF COLLECTING DATA ON THE INTERACTION OF THE STUDENT WITH THE E-LEARNING SYSTEM

Abstract

In the context of digitalization of education, the learning system is being improved and learning management systems (LMS) for mixed and distance learning are being introduced into the learning process. An integral part of any online education system is an electronic information and educational environment. Modern e-learning systems do not provide students with adaptive content, but work on the principle of “the same material for everyone”. The collection and analysis of data on user interaction in the electronic information and educational environment is attracting more and more attention as a promising approach to promoting a modern understanding of the learning process, and also contributes to understanding student’s behavior. The need to collect data on student’s interaction is motivated by the emergence of many educational analysts, who seek to use data analysis to support decisions made at each level of education. The collection and analysis of available data on the participation rate in the elements of the course of students, their activity contribute to the understanding and optimization of learning, as well as the assessment of the educational environment, where learning takes place. The paper considers one of the ways to collect data on the student's work in the system by developing and implementing a plugin in LMS Moodle. The developed plugin successfully collects statistics on the interaction of students in the e-education system with the EIOS system.This statistics can be used for further analysis. To test the developed plugin, different versions of LMS Moodle were installed. As a result of testing the plugin, it was revealed that the application functions with earlier versions of Moodle, but has a relatively lower speed compared to the versions above.
