| Popis | The application programming interface of many standalone applications, JavaScript libraries, and statistics and analytics software packages enable analysts to combine their functionality with conventional data mining and machine learning methods. Visual analytics (VA) has a wide area of applications in higher education. We are developing an analytical tool with visualisation and animations support. The main goal of the tool is to contribute to an increase in education efficiency and quality by means of novel data visualisation techniques which enable better exploratory and interactive analysis. We describe two projects that take advantage of visualisation of educational data gained from the database of the Information System of Masaryk University (IS MU). |
