Blending Sabermetrics and Artificial Intelligence for Holistic Assessment and Personalized Learning Insights for Harmonizing Educational Waters

Abstract

The sabermetrics, a specialized sports analytics, helps analyze baseball statistics for player performance insights. It parallels educational analytics processing data for decision-making. sabermetrics through metrics like Wins Above Replacement (WAR) offers a comprehensive player assessment. Similarly, educational technology provides tools for student performance analysis, engagement, and learning outcomes. While sabermetrics enhances precision in baseball decisions, its implications in education are worth exploring. In education, it suggests a shift towards comprehensive assessments, including engagement and learning styles. "WAR" inspires evaluating teachers beyond test scores, considering critical skills and collaboration. This article advocates infusing artificial intelligence with sabermetrics and teaching strategies using empirical evidence leading to data-driven insights. The conclusion underscores the potential for advanced assessment methods, personalized learning, and evidence-based educational decision-making while preserving its complex nature and human elements.
