Translate and curate activities captured from a MOOC learner into a relational database with MOOC-Learner-Curated (MLC)

(see MOOC-Learner-Docker/curated_base_img )

See MOOC-Learner-Docker

Entry point is autorun.py. Configuration is done with config/*yml, see e.g. config/sample_config.yml.

Description of MOOC-Learner-Curation execution is in docs/README.md

Two steps of an extension to MLC

• apipe: from MySQL db to intermediate CSVs
• qpipe: from intermediate CSVs to new MySQL table

If you use data sources other than click-stream, you can follow a simpler track: only qpipe

If you rely on features that does not supported by the clickstream apipe (e.g. new specifications) you have to add patches to apipe and debug

Course files from open edX servers with different specifications may have different formats. Pre-processing of the raw course files and translating them into the correct format is inevitable. Connectors are the pre-processing tools of MOOC-Learner-Curated. We do not integrate these into the pipeline of curated since we do not expect curated to identify which type of course file it is processing. User should transform the course files in advance of running curated. Currently we have to connectors which transform VisMOOC course files and MITx course tables into the MOOCdb format.
