Abstract (EN): We present a system for a dynamic graphical representation of the interactions captured in educational online environments. The system goes beyond interaction between students and teachers, also addressing resource usage or any other entity for which it is possible to create a relation which binds two entities. By defining these relationships between pairs of entities in an online learning environment (Moodle, in our case) our tool creates a graph, where it is possible to apply techniques of social network analysis. This system brings up new possibilities for e-learning as a tool capable of helping the teacher assorting and illustrating the degree of participation and to find the implicit relations between participants, or participants and resources or events. © 2017 Association for Computing Machinery.
