Access to the unprecedented quantity and quality of data generated by students has created new challenges and opportunities. For example, researchers can get a better understanding of how students acquire subjectrelated knowledge, educators can assess the effects of teaching-learning activities and interventions, and students can receive student-centred support. Available online and in real time, this support is automatically personalised as students progress through the learning process. This issue contains four articles that deal specifically with such topics. Six more articles on RUSC’s thematic areas are included in the miscellaneous section.
