The tracking data of the learners' activities is always known as significant source of information, allowing the instructors to be aware of the activities that the learners carried through, along with their outputs. It is at the same time considered a privileged element, exploited by the researchers and the developers to improve the learning environments. Yet, collecting and exploiting tracking data in Web-based learning environment are still among the research challenges. In this paper, we present the latest results of our research works, regarding the approach adopted for efficiently tracking the learner's activities on discussion forums.
