Chen, Li-Ling
Journal of Educational Technology Systems, v47 n4 p500-512 Jun 2019
Various data systems have been long and pervasively used in schools to collect student data. However, very few educators are able to apply their collected data to improve their teaching. The purpose of this article is to investigate how middle school teachers adapt data mining protocols to enhance their teaching and to improve their students' learning. Results of the research indicates that most of the middle school teachers use data systems to enter their students' data under the school requirements and only 20% of the teachers actually retrieve collected data from the system and analyze the data for intervention purpose.
