Abstract

The digital transformation of education calls for developing students' core competencies. Personalized, data-driven feedback can enhance literacy. This study evaluates the impact of such feedback on 150 students' competencies. Students are assigned to experimental, control, and waitlist groups. The experimental group receives personalized feedback; the control group undergoes conventional training; the waitlist group receives no intervention. Using the P21 Assessment Toolkit, competencies are evaluated multiple times. We anticipate the experimental group will show greater competency gains than the control and waitlist groups. Findings would validate the value of data-driven feedback to foster growth. This study has practical implications for expanding data-driven instruction to build students' self-monitoring, evaluation, and core competencies.
