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…

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…

Generating personalized learning pathways for e-learners is a critical issue in the field of e-learning as it plays a pivotal role in guiding learners towards the successful achievement of their learning objectives. The existing literature has proposed various methods from different perspectives to address this issue, including learner-based,…

Poor academic performance remains among the most concerning educational issues, especially in higher education and online learning. To address the concern, institutions like the University of Southeastern Philippines (USeP) leverage educational data mining (EDM) techniques to generate relevant information from learning management systems (LMS)…

Using Jackson and Mazzei's thinking with theory, this paper centers the stories of three researchers who practiced critical self-reflection while engaging in secondary analysis of data from The Pedagogy of Student Success Project, a study intended to learn about graduate students' evolving conceptualizations of student success. In particular, the…

Technologies and teaching practices can provide a rich log data, which enables learning analytics (LA) to bring new insights into the learning process for ultimately enhancing student success. This type of data has been used to discover student online learning patterns, relationships between online learning behaviors and assessment performance.…

An effective educational program warrants the inclusion of an innovative construction that enhances the higher education efficacy in such a way that accelerates the achievement of desired results and reduces the risk of failures. Educational decision support system has currently been a hot topic in educational systems, facilitating the pupil…

Formal achievement data such as test scores and school performance feedback from standardised assessments can be a powerful tool for data-based decision making and school improvement. However, teachers' and school leaders' usage of these data is not necessarily straightforward or predictable. In order to illuminate how educational professionals…

Predicting students' success is crucial in educational settings to improve academic performance and prevent dropouts. This study aimed to improve student performance prediction by combining advanced machine learning (ML) approaches. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and attention mechanisms were used for extracting relevant features from…

Assessing student achievement over multiple years is complicated by students' memberships in shifting upper-level nesting structures. These structures are manifested in (1) annual matriculation to different classrooms and (2) mobility between schools. Failure to model these shifting upper-level nesting structures may bias the inferences…

Education plays a major role in the development of the consciousness of the whole society. Education has been improved by analyzing educational data related to student academic performance. By using data mining techniques and algorithms on data from the educational environment, students' performances can be predicted. In this study, a novel Hybrid…

Educational institutions are creating a considerable amount of data regarding students, faculty and related organs. This data is an essential asset for academic institutions as it has valuable insights, knowledge and intelligence for the policymakers. Students are the fundamental entities and primary source of data creation in any educational…

The prediction of student performance and the analysis of students' learning behaviour play an important role in enhancing online courses. By analysing a massive amount of clickstream data that captures student behaviour, educators can gain valuable insights into the factors that influence students' academic outcomes and identify areas of…

The objectives of this research were 1) to study the problems of stress and depression among Grade 12 students; 2) to investigate the machine learning technique in analyzing and predicting stress, depression, and academic performance among Grade 12 students; and 3) to evaluate the stress and depression prediction platform.
