The 'immediacy' of feedback on academic performance is a common characteristic shared by both Learning Analytics (LA) and Formative Assessment (FA), and such immediacy could be facilitated by supporting the mobility of learners. However, there is little literature that investigates the significance of combining these two techniques. Therefore, this paper will discuss the analytical application called Quiz My Class Understanding (QMCU) which was purposely developed to investigate the significance of the combination between LA and FA techniques in order to provide students with immediate detailed feedback. Furthermore, it reports on a case study which reflects the role QMCU students' centered mobile dashboard in increasing the students' engagement with the QMCU dashboard.
