| Summary: | In this paper we report our study on the design and implementation of a visual analytics tool, Competency Analytics System (CAS), which provides feedback to instructors on both the cohort and individual student’s competency acquisition rate, as well as provide personalized dashboard to each student on his or her competency acquisition for a specific course. We present the key functionalities of CAS and describe a case study on the implementation of CAS in a first-year programming course. Data from a student survey indicates that the personalized dashboard provided by CAS contributed to enhancing their ability to clearly identify the extent to which the students have acquired or not acquired the competencies tested in an assessment and motivated them to catch up on the competencies not yet acquired. Our approach is unique in the sense that we integrate the use of a competency framework with a visual analytics dashboard. |
