Student Engagement in Mobile Learning via Text Message
summary
Dataset covers 93,819 Kenyan students in grades 6, 9, and 12 (28 million platform actions, 1.5 million quiz attempts) and narrows to about 77,000 active users after excluding silent signups. Engagement spikes align with school holidays and pre-exam periods, overall retention is low (under 25% return; ~2.3% are highly active), high-activity users attempt ~5 quizzes/day and improve from ~<60% to ~62% accuracy, but learning curve analyses across four knowledge components show no clear evidence of learning gains.
