Predicting academic performance of students from VLE big data using deep learning models
作者:
Highlights:
• The data generated by the technology-enhanced learning platforms has enabled sustainable data-driven decision making.
• The clickstream data from the virtual learning environments can predict at-risk students for early intervention.
• The artificial neural network outperforms existing models in predicting students at-risk.
• The inclusion of legacy and assessment-related data improve the prediction power of the model.
