The LAK Doctoral Consortium is a one-day workshop to support emerging scholars in learning analytics by helping them develop productive approaches to studying the intersection of theory, data, and practice in learning analytics, the learning sciences, data sciences, and human-centered computing.

The event will bring together doctoral students from a variety of disciplines working on topics related to learning analytics who are grappling with their dissertation research. The consortium chairs serve as a mentor panel to provide feedback. Doctoral Consortium participants will be given opportunities to present, discuss, and receive feedback on their research in an interdisciplinary and supportive atmosphere. They will also be exposed to a wide range of different analytic approaches, methods, and tools for acquiring data about learners and their learning activities.
