The sources or modalities in multimodal learning analytics (MLA) include the traditional log- le data captured by online systems, but also learning artifacts and more natural human signals such as gestures, gaze, speech, or writing. The current state-of-the-art of MLA is discussed and classi ed according to its modalities and the learning settings where it is usually applied. This chapter concludes with a discussion of emerging issues for practitioners in multimodal techniques.}, booktitle = {The {Handbook} of {Learning} {Analytics}}, publisher = {Society for Learning Analytics Research (SoLAR)}, author = {Ochoa, Xavier}, editor = {Lang, Charles and Siemens, George and Wise, Alyssa Friend and GaĊĦevic, Dragan}, year = {2017}, pages = {129--141} }
