Título: A Comprehensive Methodology to Analyse Topic Difficulties in  Educational Programmes

Resumo: We propose a comprehensive Learning Analytics methodology to  investigate the level of understanding students achieve in the  learning process.  The goals of such methodology are:
1) To identify topics in which students experience difficulties on;2) To assess whether these difficulties are recurrent along semesters;3) To decide if there are conceptual associations between topics in  which students experiencedifficulties on; and, more generally,4) To discover statistically significant groups of topics in which  students show similar performance.
The proposed methodology uses statistics and data visualization  techniques to address the first and the second goals, frequent itemset  mining to tackle the third goal, and biclustering is proposed to find  relationships within educational data, revealing meaningful and statistically  significant patterns of students’ performance. We illustrate the application of the methodology to a Computer Science course.

Até breve!
