Abstract

In order to visualize and analyze the learning process of students who participated in a fully online engineering course, note-taking activity was used and lexical analysis of notes taken by students was made. The features of notes taken were compared with the contents of the lecturer´s presentation slides and oral instructions. Also, the latent semantic indexing technique was applied to the student´s notes and the lecturer´s presentations, and the lexical transformation of the course content was analyzed.
