You may already know this, but there is a separate email group for Learning
Analytics, and some folks to contact who might be more likely to point you
to a demo or examples.

Here is the announcement from Apereo in June:

The Apereo Foundation is pleased to announce the Apereo Learning analytics
initiative. The aims of the initiative are to accelerate the
operationalization of Learning Analytics software and frameworks, support
the validation of analytics pilots across institutions, and working
together so as to avoid duplication.

The initiative is supported by Marist College a founding partner of the
Society of Learning Analytics Research (SoLAR), and the Focus Group
Learning Analytics at the University of Amsterdam.

Within the Apereo community Marist College has released the Open Academic
Analytics initiative (OAAI), a proven open-source academic early alert
system - https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/x/8aWCB . The University of
Amsterdam has sponsored a protocol update for Sakai CLE and Apereo OAE’s
which enables the applications to store student activity in a secure
repository called a Learning Record Store -
https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/TINCAN/Home . This feature
simplifies cross validation of Learning Analytics projects. The University
of Amsterdam is also planning to build a community sourced Learning Record
Store that should be seen as an integral part of a maturing OAAI framework.

If you are interested in working towards a community sourced analytics
infrastructure, incubating software, sharing requirements, cross validating
analytics pilots, while working in a wider community of interest then
please contact:

Alan Berg:  Community Officer for the Apereo Learning Analytics Initiative
analytics-coordinator at apereo.org

A mailing list to support discussion of analytics across Apereo projects
has been established - analytics at apereo.org. You can subscribe by sending a
message to analytics+subscribe at apereo.org
