This is the fourth in a series of evidence briefs, reporting on four A/B/n tests which explore different features to enhance digital personalised learning (DPL) tools. This brief investigates the extent to which the provision of notifications to pre-primary teachers to view data dashboards impacts learner device usage and learning outcomes. The A/B/C test found no impact on device usage and negligible impact on learning outcomes. This suggests that accompanying data dashboards with...

These lessons were developed using...
