Curricular design in higher education significantly impacts student success and institutional performance. However, academic programs' complexity--shaped by pass rates, prerequisite dependencies, and course repeat policies--creates challenges for administrators. This paper presents a method for modeling curricular pathways including development of…

Predictive models play a pivotal role in education by aiding learning, teaching, and assessment processes. However, they have the potential to perpetuate educational inequalities through algorithmic biases. This paper investigates how behavioral differences across demographic groups of different sizes propagate through the student success modeling…

The Georgia Institute of Technology is proud to host the seventeenth International Conference on Educational Data Mining (EDM) in Atlanta, Georgia, July 14-July 17, 2024. EDM is the annual flagship conference of the International Educational Data Mining Society. This year's theme is "New tools, new prospects, new risks--educational data…

There is less attention on examining algorithmic fairness in secondary education dropout predictions. Also, the inclusion of protected attributes in machine learning models remains a subject of debate. This study delves into the use of machine learning models for predicting high school dropouts, focusing on the role of protected attributes like…

Within the last decade, different educational data mining techniques, particularly quantitative methods such as clustering, and regression analysis are widely used to analyze the data from educational games. In this research, we implemented a quantitative data mining technique (clustering) to further investigate students' feedback. Students played…
