Notice Title

Supply of a Learning Analytics Solution

Notice Description

Sheffield Hallam University is looking to collaborate with a supplier of a proven Learning Analytics software solution. Sheffield Hallam University define Learning Analytics as "the measurement, collection, analysis and reporting of data about learners and their contexts, for purposes of understanding and optimizing learning and the environments in which it occurs." (Siemens and Gasevic, 2012). Our ultimate goal is to increase student retention, improve student support and success, increase student engagement and identify and address differential outcomes for our students. We are therefore seeking to procure and implement a learning analytics solution whilst embedding behavioural and cultural change amongst University staff that enables the best possible use of the information we hold about our students and to engage students with information on their own learning. This opportunity is based on a 3 year contract with an option to extend for a further 2 years (max 5 year contract). The University plans to fully implement and go live with Learning Analytics in September 2019, therefore only existing products which are able to fully meet our essential requirements will be considered. Additional information: Please note this procurement has been abandoned. A notice has been published on the European Simap portal
