Abstract
The paper presents a statistical exploration of the use of resources in Bulgarian educational site UCHA.SE based on the user logs and information on students’ interactions stored directly in the site database. This research aims at revealing gaps between the demand and supply that suggest possible improvement of the content and help identifying groups of users, which could be approached in a specific way.
Notes
- 1.
We present here only relative data in consent with the non violation of sensitive data policy of UCHA.SE.
