According to the author, learning analytics "is seldom used to support collaborative learning particularly in face-to-face (F2F) learning contexts," something this paper hopes to correct. Specifically, the analytics in question here provide support for collaborative argumentation. What that means is that a group of people works together in order to jointly create an argument, with each person contributing their own perspectives and ideas. The analytics engine in this case would do more that just help them visualize their argument, it would also analyze it and provide feedback. This student develops a F2F collaborative argumentation (FCA) dashboard and solicits student responses to it.
