Barros, Thiago M.; Souza Neto, Plácido A.; Silva, Ivanovitch; Guedes, Luiz Affonso – Education Sciences, 2019
Predicting school dropout rates is an important issue for the smooth execution of an educational system. This problem is solved by classifying students into two classes using educational activities related statistical datasets. One of the classes must identify the students who have the tendency to persist. The other class must identify the…

Moore, Robert L.; Oliver, Kevin M.; Wang, Chuang – Interactive Learning Environments, 2019
Learning analytics focuses on extracting meaning from large amounts of data. One of the largest datasets in education comes from Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) that typically feature enrollments in the tens of thousands. Analyzing MOOC discussion forums presents logistical issues, resulting chiefly from the size of the dataset, which can…

Yin, Sylvia Chong Nguik – IAFOR Journal of Education, 2016
Universities are inundated with detailed applicant and enrolment data from a variety of sources. However, for these data to be useful there is a need to convert them into strategic knowledge and information for decision-making processes. This study uses predictive modelling to identify at-risk adult learners in their first semester at SIM…
