Nowadays, the issue of student drop-out is addressed not only through the prism of pedagogy, but also by technological practices. In this paper, we demonstrate how a student drop-out could be predicted through a student’s performance using different Machine Learning techniques, i.e., supervised learning and unsupervised learning. The results show that various types of student engagement are essential factors in predicting drop-out and the final ECTS points achievements.

Abstract

Nowadays, the issue of student drop-out is addressed not only through the prism of pedagogy, but also by technological practices. In this paper, we demonstrate how a student drop-out could be predicted through a student’s performance using different Machine Learning techniques, i.e., supervised learning and unsupervised learning. The results show that various types of student engagement are essential factors in predicting drop-out and the final ECTS points achievements.
