Gerd Kortemeyer’s research focus is on the use of technology in physics education at the post-secondary level – specifically, on the development of effective tools for online learning, content management, assessment, learning analytics, and educational data mining.
Of particular interest is the data generated from online learning venues – not only in virtual university courses or MOOCs, but also in flipped, blended, or hybrid learning environments. Transaction records, particularly those including formative assessment events, offer unique insight into student learning and educational effectiveness.
