... Policymakers are being forced by this disruption in the delivery of education to figure out how to increase commitment at scale while ensuring full e-learning arrangements and managing the digital environment. In numerous nations, the employment of big data in schools and universities is normal (Olanrewaju et al., 2016;West, 2012;Drigas and Leliopoulos, 2014;Sedkaoui and Khelfaoui, 2019;Elia et al., 2019;Maldonado-Mahauad et al., 2018;Cantabella et al., 2019). ...
... Big data opens up opportunities for new learning experiences for students, enabling them to share information with educational institutions and expand their knowledge and skills. Moreover, educational institutes and universities can utilise big data to assist and prepare their future students (Drigas & Leliopoulos, 2014). ...
Despite best efforts, the student experience remains poorly understood. One under-explored approach to understanding the student experience is the use of big data analytics. The reported study is a work in progress aimed at exploring the value of big data methods for understanding the student experience. A big data analysis of an open dataset of student comments is being undertaken. The first and simplest use of big data analytics is for the identification of high frequency keyword groups, which, without big data analytics, would be extremely time consuming. However, the lack of context surrounding keyword groups severely limited the ability to draw meaningful conclusions and highlighted the need for human intervention in the analysis process. Future work includes sentiment analysis. This initial work is an impetus for further exploration of big data analytics methods in qualitative contexts, especially in dynamic contexts where rapid data analysis can form a basis for timely interventions.
... In this way, big data in the field of education can be used to support the educational system. Its techniques provide reviews of existing academic performance (Drigas & Leliopoulos, 2014). This is because educational institutions, as indicated by Raopn & Baglodi (2018), did not use this new generation of data and did not apply their techniques to classify and extract large educational data sets to the fullest extent. ...
... This framework is studied, understood and used as a model for current analytics across different stages and levels in the supply chain and proper utilization of the computational framework will help to optimize results obtained from the analytics process [22]. A computational framework is required to ensure that data processing, despite how endless and relentless it has become, is context-dependent [23]. This statement means that the data is required to be processed according to the needs and requirements of the data users and not abstractly or generally, but according to the information required to make decisions or recommendations based on the evidence available which can be gotten through the information garnered concerning the textiles. ...
The ever-growing degradation of the environment has led to the building and implementation of various strategies to achieve sustainable development. The textile industry is not left out in this struggle to reach sustainability through sustainable supply chain management. This paper proposes a sustainable closed-loop supply chain for the textile industry, integrating some industry 4.0 Technologies to facilitate data-driven decision-making within the supply chain and ensure sustainability. The study reveals that block-chain application in the closed-loop supply chain will support tracking and enable supply chain traceability and provide secure means of recording information about the actors and their actions in the supply chain. The paper further recommends the use of Big Data technologies throughout the life cycle stages for data retrieval, processing, storage, mining and application in the textile industry. Also, Industry 4.0 technologies will facilitate sustainable supply chain in the textile industry as it helps in data collection, analysis and information transmission.

... The precision education approach aims to personalize the learning experience by taking into account the unique characteristics and needs of each student, including their learning environments and strategies (Hart, 2016;Luan et al., 2020), to improve the diagnosis, predication, and treatment of learning outcomes (Lu et al., 2018). Previous research in the field of education has encountered difficulties in providing real-time, actionable feedback based on the learning data collected from and about students, as well as other stakeholders such as teachers and administrators (Drigas & Leliopoulos, 2014;Madhavan & Richey, 2016). Precision education techniques have the potential to alleviate this issue. ...
In early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic prompted higher education institutions worldwide to transition on-site courses to emergency remote teaching environments (ERTEs). In this context, it was unclear what factors were associated with students’ learning outcomes and how students could be grouped based on their responses to these factors. Through exploratory factor analysis and structural equation modeling analysis on 9418 higher education students in 41 countries attending courses in ERTEs during COVID-19, we identified six environmental or individual latent factors that had significant associations with learning outcomes: perceived teacher support (TS), satisfaction with administration support (AS), satisfaction with synchronous course organization (SCO), satisfaction with asynchronous course organization (ACO), computer skills (CS), and worry about life. Among these factors, SCO had the most significant direct association, followed by CS, ACO, AS, and TS. The associations of these factors with learning outcomes were partially mediated by students’ positive and negative academic emotions. Using latent profile analysis, we further identified eight profiles among students, representing combinations of the six environmental and individual factors, and found that different profiles were related to varying learning outcomes and student characteristics. These findings highlight important factors associated with higher education students’ learning outcomes in ERTEs during crisis situations and provide implications for individualized interventions and support strategies to enhance learning outcomes.

In this study, we aimed to explore the factors associated with higher education students’ learning outcomes in emergency remote teaching environments (ERTEs) during the COVID-19 pandemic at both the population and individual levels, given the limited understanding in previous research. 9418 students from 41 countries were selected for analysis from a survey-based dataset that was collected with the aim of understanding the self-perceived impacts of the first-wave COVID-19 pandemic on higher education students. We conducted structural equation modeling to explore associated factors and latent profile analysis to identify student profiles based on these factors. Utilizing the identified profiles, we developed a random forest-based classifier to identify the membership of students’ profiles. The results showed that six environmental and individual factors—partially mediated by academic emotions—were significantly associated with learning outcomes. The positively associated factors, ranked by path coefficient, were satisfaction with synchronous course organization (SCO), computer skills (CS), satisfaction with asynchronous course organization (ACO), satisfaction with administration support (AS), and perceived teacher support (TS). The negatively associated factor was worry about life. Based on these factors, eight profiles were identified with varying learning outcomes and student characteristics. The classifier achieved a testing accuracy of 0.904. By integrating variable-centered and person-centered approaches, this study bridges the gap in understandings of general patterns and individual differences regarding key factors associated with higher education students’ learning outcomes. The findings have implications for designing individualized interventions and support strategies to enhance student learning outcomes and mitigate educational disparities in ERTEs during crisis situations.
