The commentary reports a finding attributed to the Zacharia et al. (2015) literature review: the review indicated that guidance tools "had increased the ease of use of CoSIL but failed in personalizing CoSIL to individual students." The commentary offers no independent data for this; it is a second-hand attribution.
"Zacharia et al. (2015) indicated that the various guidance tools had increased the ease of use of CoSIL but failed in personalizing CoSIL to individual students."
