Abstract

The learning analytics approach that is developing in digital education generally emphasizes the use of learning data to increase the effectiveness of evidence-based pedagogy. The research method used is a conceptual literature study based on a conceptual literature study with a thematic analysis approach to relevant academic sources, including learning analytics literature, authentic assessment, inclusive education, and Christian educational theology. The results show that the SLA Model has four main components, namely input, process, output, and outcome, which form a continuous learning evaluation cycle. This model provides a theoretical contribution in expanding the scope of learning analytics into the spiritual dimension as well as a practical contribution in designing a more inclusive digital learning evaluation for ABK.
