About
Brendan Lucas is a researcher at the intersection of learning analytics, educational technology, and large-scale online learning environments. His work focuses on developing innovative tools to support instructors in massive educational settings, particularly through the design and implementation of Learning Analytics Dashboards (LADs). His most cited paper, "Towards developing a learning analytics dashboard for a massive online robotics competition" (2022, 2 citations), addresses a critical challenge in modern education: how to maintain student engagement and provide effective instructor oversight in global, online robotics competitions. By proposing a dashboard framework that enables real-time tracking of participant activities, Lucas contributes to making massive online learning scenarios more manageable and pedagogically sound. His research is notable for bridging the gap between data-driven analytics and practical instructional needs, offering scalable solutions for competitions that involve thousands of participants worldwide. While his citation count is still growing, Lucas’s work represents an important step toward leveraging learning analytics to enhance equity and engagement in STEM education at scale.
