Van Petegem, Charlotte; Deconinck, Louise; Mourisse, Dieter; Maertens, Rien; Strijbol, Niko; Dhoedt, Bart; De Wever, Bram; Dawyndt, Peter; Mesuere, Bart – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
We present a privacy-friendly early-detection framework to identify students at risk of failing in introductory programming courses at university. The framework was validated for two different courses with annual editions taken by higher education students (N = 2 080) and was found to be highly accurate and robust against variation in course…
