Increasing digitisation of student records means predictive analytics is expected to transform teaching and become a key tool in learning more about students. Predictive analytics is a process in which data collected about the student – typically attendance, subjects taken, assessment – is used to understand learning patterns, identify skill gaps, predict performance and identify learning opportunities. Teachers and administrators have always analysed student data, but as more student records become digitised – for example, using a consistent online marking system school-wide – there are more opportunities for analysis. Digitised data is also quicker and easier to analyse.
