Abstract Analytics technologies that mine large amount of structured and unstructured data to gain insights are becoming increasingly important to businesses. Current web analytics are focused on e-commerce sites, where the visits have to converge in a purchase. The behavior of e-learning environments users is driven by information acquiring. In this paper we are going to analyse an educational website avatto.com using two analytical tools google analytics and statcounter. Keywords: Google Analytics, analytics for online education, statcounter, Online Analytical Tools 1. Introduction Each time a resource hosted on a web server is requested on the web a record is written in the web server log. A resource can be an HTML file which is typically …show more content…
Main Challenges Data processing in web analytics starts with determining unique visitors and visits. 3.1 Unique user identification One major challenge in web analytics is to identify unique visitors. One method is to identify them based on their IP addresses and the User Agent [6]. An alternative is to use cookies. Therefore, Google Analytics and other web analytics instruments use them to determine unique visitors. Cookies are used because IP addresses are not always unique to users and may be shared by large groups or proxies. However, there are other circumstances in which both of these (i.e., IP + User Agent and cookies) methods are inaccurate. 3.2 Multiple IP addresses - Single Visitor An individual that accesses the website from different locations/devices will have different IP addresses (respectively different cookie ID) from visit to visit and thus will be counted more than once. This makes tracking repeat visits from the same user difficult. 3.3 Multiple User Agents - Single …show more content…
Moreover, cookies can be deleted or blocked. The most accurate solution is to use registered user account information in order to identify individuals, especially for e-learning as most web-based educational systems use user authentication. This solution is the most realistic one and can be implemented only in an integrated system. 3.4 Visit/Session identification Identifying accurate visits is not a trivial task. That is mainly because HTTP protocol is stateless and connectionless. Thus, it is virtually impossible to determine when a user is consulting the site or visiting other sites or if actually leaves the website. Moreover, some ISPs or privacy tools randomly assign each request from a user to one of several IP addresses. Although rare, in these cases, a single server session can have multiple IP addresses. There are three main heuristics that are generally used to determine the visit termination: 1) Temporal heuristics that restricts the duration of the entire visit to a predefined upper bound (usually accepted as 30 minutes) [9] 2) Temporal heuristics that limits the time spent on any page to a threshold value accepted as 30 minutes according to [5],
HTTP response splitting and HTTP request smuggling (Testing, 2014; OWASP, 2014) are common and
Server’s response is a timestamp, which when returned, completed field is updated as true. 5) There are situations where patient may be using the application on multiple devices, in that case, two other web services; last visited and recorded values are used to maintain synchronization between
Once this is done I can set everyone up in classes with Enterprise Analytics. Sorry for the confusion…more to come! Donna
The goal is to recommend for each user only the Top $N$ items with highest scores.looseness=-1 subsubsection{Temporal-Distance Heuristic - TDH-2 } A simple strategy is based on recommending items that have been unexpected for long intervals. We assume that users are more willing to re-consume items that they have consumed long ago. The longer the period an item has been unexpected, the higher its final relevance score. We define the score of each item $i$ as the interval between the test moment $M_t$ and the most recent moment that $u$ consumed $i$ in the training set.
* * userInfo closure to display the number of visits made by the user. */ function userInfo() { var countVisits = function (){
Every page, folder, template, group and user record has an audit trail that captures every change made, with the date/time and user stamp to indicate who made the change and when. Users with appropriate security access can view this information, and reporting is also available to pinpoint specific types of changes or to narrow down records to specific time frames. 6. How does the system ensure availability, security and privacy of data on shared
Browsers allow you to search for and view various kinds of information on the Web, such as web sites, video, audio, etc. These web browsers usually have generic features such: • Navigation buttons • Refresh
1. Standards Driven Data: Online tools and resources will be used to analyze standards used in a course. How often are they being used and are they being used appropriately? Data then will determine what needs changed and adapted to meet those requirements. 2.
The three usability specifications that I will propose as being appropriate to assess the usability of my proposed are the time to locate a club, number of times the back button is used, meaning that they cannot find the information and appearance. First the time to locate a club on the website and the number of times the back button is used is important. The current website is not satisfying students because the website has too many links that take you to a different part on the website. In programming, they have many links to prevent too much information being stored on one section of the website to make it run faster. But the problem is people do not want to have to go fishing through links to find something that should take 10 or 15 seconds.
• With CloudWatch Logs, logs can be monitored, in near real time, for specific phrases, values or patterns. For example, an alarm can be set on the number of errors that occur in the system logs or view graphs of latency of web requests from the application logs. We can then view the original log data to see the source of the problem. • Log data can be stored and accessed indefinitely in highly durable, low-cost storage. • The data can be accessed directly, as text and numerical output that can then be analyzed or manipulated, or viewed in more mediated formats, such as graphs.
Week Four Website Review Humana is an insurance company that offers insurance for providers, individuals and families, employers, agents and brokers. The company focuses on the well being of the people while working to empower members to live active and healthy lives (McCallister, 2015).

Time management has been one of the most substantial hurdles of my scholastic and professional career. Many of us waste our time on things that are neither important nor necessary, instead of using that time for something of that is meaningful. To capitalize on the use of time management strategies and reach my Doctoral Business Administration (DBA) program goals. I will execute two specific time management strategies, for example, accessing and planning a weekly schedule while adjusting my daily schedule. Time management will help me maximize the use of my time and reach my ultimate DBA goals of completing each assignment.

In the age of online learning, students can study at top institutions from a distance, which is especially useful for those who live in rural areas or who can’t afford the costs of travel and accommodation. As well as the choice of institution, the choice of subjects is virtually unlimited Immediate start Many online courses don’t have a set start date, unlike traditional university or college courses, allowing students to make an immediate start.
1-Introduction Today, technology has developed a lot and invaded every field of our life. One of the fields affected by this progress in technology is education. Now online learning is one of the aims that is achieved in education sectors all over the world. This is a way of learning by which learning is done through the internet. There is no need for students to go to school or university in order to learn something new.
