Abstract :
Several projects have been proposed to make easier the distance education monitoring and assessment, based on logs and databases. In this paper, we present a data collection framework based on logical and physical sensor network that can track and capture events generated by users and applications in real-time. For that, sensors are deployed in Learning Management Systems (LMS), in user devices and physical environment that surrounds it in order to capture relevant and substantial data for teaching-learning process understanding. Theoretical analysis shows that this possibility achieves better inferences when applied on a more significant data set.
