14. A Data-Driven Approach to Predict First-Year Students' Academic Success in Higher Education Institutions

Author

Gil, Paulo Diniz, da Cruz Martins, Susana, Moro, Sérgio, and Costa, Joana Martinho

Abstract

This study presents a data mining approach to predict academic success of the first-year students. A dataset of 10 academic years for first-year bachelor's degrees from a Portuguese Higher Institution (N = 9652) has been analysed. Features' selection resulted in a characterising set of 68 features, encompassing socio-demographic, social origin, previous education, special statutes and educational path dimensions. We proposed and tested three distinct course stage data models based on entrance date, end of the first and second curricular semesters. A support vector machines (SVM) model achieved the best overall performance and was selected to conduct a data-based sensitivity analysis. The previous evaluation performance, study gaps and age-related features play a major role in explaining failures at entrance stage. For subsequent stages, current evaluation performance features unveil their predictive power. Suggested guidelines include to provide study support groups to risk profiles and to create monitoring frameworks. From a practical standpoint, a data-driven decision-making framework based on these models can be used to promote academic success.

22. Unfolding the Drivers of Student Success in Answering Multiple-Choice Questions about Microsoft Excel

Author

Moro, Sérgio, Martins, António, Ramos, Pedro, Esmerado, Joaquim, Costa, Joana Martinho, and Almeida, Daniela

Abstract

Many university programs include Microsoft Excel courses given their value as a scientific and technical tool. However, evaluating what is effectively learned by students is a challenging task. Considering multiple-choice written exams are a standard evaluation format, this study aimed to uncover the features influencing students' success in answering these types of questions. The empirical experiments were based on Excel evaluation exams containing questions answered by 526 students between 2012 and 2016, with a total of 3,340 answers characterized by 17 features. Through data mining, a neural network was developed that accurately modeled students' choices. A sensitivity analysis was applied to the model to assess the most relevant features. Findings identified four highly relevant features for students' success: number of words of the question, topic, difficulty degree, and number of similar choices. This study helps to guide the design of future exams by quantifying the individual influence of each feature.
