The aim of this research project was to trace the path that a learner takes during an online course session using javascript applied to each course page within the Learning Management System. The path that is traced includes how the student peruses the course menu and the content within a course. The data collected from the trace of the learner's path through the online course can be beneficial in that the researchers will be able to find out where learners have issues within the course. The issues may be due to navigation, instructions or course content. As a result, the researchers will be able to discover trends or themes when the data is coded. These trends or themes will lead to better online course structure, course content and course navigation. This will then improve the quality of the online courses so that participants get a more positive and beneficial online course experience.
