Bu çalışmanın amacı, çevrimiçi öğrenme ortamında benzer davranış örüntüsü sergileyen farklı öğrenci gruplarının belirlenmesidir. Çalışmaya Bilgisayar ve Öğretim Teknolojileri Eğitimi Bölümü’nde Bilgisayar Donanımı dersine kayıtlı 76 üniversite ikinci sınıf öğrencisi katılmıştır. Öğrenciler, 14 hafta süresince yüz yüze derslere ek olarak ders dışı tüm etkinlikleri (yansıma yazma, tartışmalara katılım, kaynak takibi vb.) gerçekleştirmek amacıyla çevrimiçi öğrenme ortamı kullanmışlardır. Analizlerde kullanılan veriler bu ortamın veri tabanından elde edilmiştir. Veriler iki farklı kümeleme algoritması ile analiz edilmiş ve sonuçları karşılaştırılmıştır. Aynı zamanda elde edilen farklı öğrenci gruplarının akademik performansları incelenerek etkileşim düzeyi ile ders başarısı arasındaki ilişki analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları öğrencilerin çevrimiçi öğrenme ortamındaki davranış örüntülerine göre ideal olarak üç farklı kümeye ayrılabileceğini göstermiştir. Bu kümelerin tanımlanması konusunda ise iki farklı yaklaşım izlenmiştir. Kümeler, her bir kümede yer alan öğrencilerin aktivite düzeylerine göre (Çok Aktif, Aktif, Aktif Olmayan) ve öğrencilerin akademik performanslarına (Yüksek Öğrenme, Orta Öğrenme, Düşük Öğrenme) göre tanımlanmıştır.
