Abstract
We describe pilot study results evaluating how Learnweb’s search and activity logs and eye tracking features can help to answer research questions of the SoMeCliCS project. We explored the extent to which students’ information-seeking behavior can be tracked on a social media platform and how useful the results can be for science education.
