About
I am Professor of Learning Analytics at the Institute of Educational Technology at the Open University UK. I joined IET in January 2014, initially as Reader in Learning Analytics. Previously I worked at University of Surrey from 2010-213 as (senior) lecturer in higher education, and before that in various roles from 2000-2010 at Maastricht University. My main research interests are related to Learning Analytics, Learning Design, Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, and Professional Development. Also I am interested in broader internationalisation aspects of higher education, and more recently have become interested in transplant athlete journeys and Patient and Public Involvement and engagement.
Biography
Dr. Bart Rienties is Professor of Learning Analytics and programme lead of the learning analytics and learning design research programme at the Institute of Educational Technology at the Open University UK. He leads a group of academics who provide university-wide learning analytics and learning design solutions and conduct evidence-based research of how students and professionals learn. As educational psychologist, he conducts multi-disciplinary research on work-based and collaborative learning environments and focuses on the role of social interaction in learning, which is published in leading academic journals and books. His primary research interests are focussed on Learning Analytics, Professional Development, and the role of motivation in learning. Furthermore, Bart is interested in broader internationalisation aspects of higher education. He has successfully led a range of institutional/national/European projects, and has received a range of awards for his educational innovation projects. He is President of the Society of Learning Analytics Research (SoLAR), the largest researcher community on learning analytics.
He has published over 300 academic outputs, and is the 1st most published and cited author on learning design and learning analytics in the period 2014-2023 (Drugova et al. 2023), the 2nd most published author on Networks in Education in period 1969-2020 (Saqr et al. 2022), the 3rd most cited author on higher education internationalisation in Asia in the period 2013-2018 (Can & Hou, 2021), the 3rd most published author on EdTech in the period 2002-2022 (Aaradhi & Chakraborty, 2023), the 4th most cited author and contributor in Learning Analytics in the period 2011-2018 (Adeniji, 2019), the 5th most published author on internationalisation in the period 1900-2018 (Jing et al. 2020), the 7th most published author on social network analysis in social sciences in the period 1999-2018 (Su et al. 2020), the 10th most published author on e-learning in the period 1970-2022 (Martinez-Garcia et al., 2023), the 10th most published and most cited author per published paper in Computers in Human Behavior 2004-2022 (Liu et al., 2024), and the 14th most published author on educational technology in the period 2015-2018 (West & Bodily, 2020). According to Research.com, he is ranked nationally at 398 and globally at 2258 in Social Sciences and Humanities.

England Seeks to Measure Learning
Bart Rienties, a reader in learning analytics at the Open University, a distance learning institution, said the project primarily relies on analysis of data already being collected by his university and the other two institutions in the project, Oxford Brookes University and the University of Surrey.

International students: universities must lead fight against intolerance of migrants
What happens when the president of the world’s leading superpower makes inflammatory comments about immigrants and wins an election based largely on a racist and nationalist platform? As we’ve seen over the past two years, his followers feel emboldened and righteous in their discrimination against immigrants, despite their hopes, ambitions and rich personal histories.

OU algorithm for monitoring online student engagement
An algorithm developed by the OU, which monitors the online engagement of students, is discussed in this article about how universities are using the personal data of students. Leading to a better understanding of study behaviour, it will enable the OU to provide students with more tailored and effective support. Dr. Bart Rienties, IET, is quoted in the article.

Teaching intelligence: how to use learning analytics
According to Bart Rienties, professor of learning analytics at the Open University, tutors armed with insights from learning analytics must be very tactful in dealing with students. He advises tutors to keep things fairly general, rather than pointing the finger at the student. “What people always underestimate [about learning analytics] is the people aspect; no matter how good the data system…

Universities are tracking their students. Is it clever or creepy?
Bart Rienties, Reader in Learning Analytics, discusses how the OU is trying to understand how students learn by analytics. He was part of a study at the OU looking at both drop-out rates and how studying online activity can indicate academic performance.

Weighing up the benefits of learning
Bart Rienties, professor of learning analytics at the Open University, said the big problem with measuring learning gain was the burden it placed on students. To avoid this, he advocated that institutions “become smarter” about mining their existing data sets and using learning analytics to help under-performing students as well as high achievers. “Every institution should be passionate about enhancing the quality of its teaching”
