TL;DR: A novel method for constructing IATs using online survey software (Qualtrics) is introduced and its validity is empirically assessed; it appears to be reliable and valid, offer numerous advantages, and make I ATs accessible for researchers who use survey software to conduct online research.

TL;DR: Investigation of changes in students' academic motivation orientations over the course of one bridge program and how a learning analytics-based intervention was employed by academic advisors to inform their face-to-face meetings with students indicates that students' exposure to displays of their academic performance negatively predicts this change.

TL;DR: The implicit association test (IAT) is widely used in psychology as discussed by the authors, but it cannot be run within online surveys, requiring researchers who conduct online surveys to rely on third-party tools.

TL;DR: A learning management system designed with an eye towards learning analytics, it is hoped GradeCraft will give instructors new insight into student engagement, and provide data-driven ideas about how to tailor courses to student needs.

TL;DR: Findings from the implementation of a learning analytics-powered Early Warning System by academic advisors who were novice users of data-driven learning analytics tools sheds new light on how student analytic data might be incorporated into the work practices of advisors working with university students.
