L’articolo presenta un’analisi quantitativa dei dati nell’ambito didattico universitario online. L’ipotesi di ricerca iniziale era di una correlazione positiva tra l’intensità dell’interazione tutor-studente e la valutazione finale. L’attività di analisi ha coinvolto 248 studenti e considerato 2845 interazioni. I dati hanno mostrato una correlazione debolmente negativa, falsificando l’ipotesi di partenza.Questo lavoro preliminare ha confermato i punti di attenzione evidenziati dalla letteratura rispetto ai learning analytics: 1) qualità e integrazione dei dati da analizzare; 2) difficile attribuzione di un senso pedagogico ai risultati delle analisi.;
