Purpose: Academic anxiety is a common phenomenon in the college student population, which has an important impact on students' psychological health and academic performance. Therefore, by exploring the effects of college students' professional commitment and achievement goal orientation variables on academic anxiety, it helps to understand…

This systematic review sheds light on the role of ontologies in predicting achievement among online learners, in order to promote their academic success. In particular, it looks at the available literature on predicting online learners' performance through ontological machine-learning techniques and, using a systematic approach, identifies the…

Predicting academic performance in Educational Data Mining has been a significant research area. This involves utilizing machine learning techniques to analyze data from educational settings. Predicting student academic performance is a complex task due to the influence of multiple factors. This research uses supervised machine-learning approaches…

This article introduces a novel method that integrates collaborative filtering into the naive Bayes model to enhance predicting student academic performance. The combined approach leverages collaborative user behavior analysis and probabilistic modeling, showing promising results in improved prediction precision. Collaborative Filtering explores…

Student academic performance prediction is a significant area of study in the realm of education that has drawn the interest and investigation of numerous scholars. The current approaches for student academic performance prediction mainly rely on the educational information provided by educational system, ignoring the information on students'…

Higher education institutions have consistently strived to provide students with top-notch education. To achieve better outcomes, machine learning (ML) algorithms greatly simplify the prediction process. ML can be utilized by academicians to obtain insight into student data and mine data for forecasting the performance. In this paper, the authors…

Predictive modelling in the education domain can be utilised to significantly improve teaching and learning experiences. Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) generate a large volume of data that can be exploited to predict and evaluate student performance based on various factors. This paper has two broad aims. Firstly, to develop and tune several…

In the current educational landscape, where large amounts of data are being produced by institutions, Educational Data Mining (EDM) emerges as a critical discipline that plays a crucial role in extracting knowledge from this data to help academic policymakers make decisions. EDM has a primary focus on predicting students' academic performance.…

Predicting student performance using educational data is a significant area of machine learning research. However, class imbalance in datasets and the challenge of developing interpretable models can hinder accuracy. This study compares different variations of the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) combined with classification…

This study examines the relationship between L2 vocabulary knowledge, self-rating of word knowledge, self-perceptions of four language skills (listening, reading, speaking, and writing), and students' academic achievement. An objective measure of lexical knowledge and questionnaire on self-perception and self-rating of vocabulary knowledge were…

Prediction of student performance in introductory programming courses can assist struggling students and improve their persistence. On the other hand, it is important for the prediction to be transparent for the instructor and students to effectively utilize the results of this prediction. Explainable Machine Learning models can effectively help…

This study aimed to develop a prediction model to classify students based on their academic procrastination tendencies, which were measured and classified as low and high using a self-report tool developed based on the students' assignment submission behaviours logged in the learning management system's database. The students' temporal learning…

Many studies have linked quality in early childhood education and care [ECEC] to school performance, but the mechanisms of how ECEC process quality affects children in ways that lead to improved school performance is unclear. In this study on 7431 children in Norway, we test the hypothesis that the relation between process quality in ECEC and…

Higher education practitioners and researchers in the STEM field continue seeking ways to effectively identify and understand student challenges as part of an effort to support student success, retention, and persistence. These efforts have led researchers to explore non-cognitive personality factors such as perfectionism as a way of understanding…

In every culture and era, education is considered the most fundamental reality and rule that societies prioritize and deem essential. Throughout the process spanning thousands of years, from the emergence of writing to the present day, education has undergone various forms and formats of change. Education has been a continuous guide for shaping,…
