In their article, they describe who we are and what our goals are with the project. How can we give students better insight into their study progress, and enable teachers to see exactly where guidance is needed? Starting from this question, our IguideME team will be working further over the coming years. With support from an Upscaling Grant from the Dutch National Education Institute (NKO), we can further develop IguideME and implement it more widely.
IguideME (I guide My Education) is our AI‑driven feedback tool that we integrate into digital learning environments. It gives students and teachers, at a glance, insight into progress, study behaviour, learning processes and learning outcomes. This helps students to better steer their own learning and gives teachers the information they need to intervene in time and prevent dropout.
After successful implementation at the University of Amsterdam (UvA), VU Amsterdam (VU) and the University of Groningen (RUG), we are now scaling up IguideME to senior secondary vocational education (mbo), universities of applied sciences (hbo) and research universities (wo), in collaboration with partners including Noorderpoort, Hanze University of Applied Sciences Groningen, The Hague University of Applied Sciences, Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and the University of Amsterdam. In this way, we are working step by step towards an educational practice in which personalised, data‑driven feedback is the norm.
