Abstract

Actionable learning analytics (LA) has the potential to revolutionise education by providing real-time, practical insights that can directly influence teaching strategies and learning processes. Unlike traditional LA approaches that focus on performance monitoring and external interventions, actionable LA aims to close the feedback loop by delivering data-informed insights that empower stakeholders (learners, educators, parents, etc.) themselves to make informed decisions. This research topic, drawing from data from over half a million learners across five different countries, explores how actionable LA can be leveraged to promote self-regulation, metacognition, and motivation in learners, transforming passive data collection into active educational interventions for real change.
