Some people on this list may be interested in the emerging area of Learning Analytics - trace data (from click-streams, to eye tracking, to chat logs, etc.) gathered for the support of learning. I've written a couple of posts on how mediawiki (and Wikipedia) might relate to this topic, e.g.:

. http://people.kmi.open.ac.uk/knight/2013/07/badging-wikipedia-contributions/
And gave a talk at the WikiMedia UK Conference/AGM on that and mediawiki for OER:

There are slides with audio embedded in that post, but if you'd prefer to watch the video, that should be available:

I'd certainly welcome comments and ideas, and I'm happy to talk further to anyone who's interested in the area.
Cheers!
