This five-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings, funded in part under the Education and Human Resources and Innovative Technology Experiences for Students and Teachers programs, provides $320,006 to Cornell University to improve educators' trust in and effective use of predictive learning analytics. Over the course of the project, the awardee will conduct online randomized controlled trials with 3,600 U.S. educators to investigate how different presentations of predictive learning analytics influence perceptions, attitudes, and intended usage. Insights will guide the development of evidence-based training materials on predictive learning analytics to foster awareness, trust, and effective use among educators. If successful, the project aims to encourage more educators to utilize at-risk identification processes to better support students through a subsequent field experiment. The work directly supports the National Science Foundation's mission to advance STEM education through foundational research generating knowledge on STEM learning and broadening participation in STEM fields.
