Deho, Oscar Blessed; Joksimovic, Srecko; Li, Jiuyong; Zhan, Chen; Liu, Jixue; Liu, Lin – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2023
Many educational institutions are using predictive models to leverage actionable insights using student data and drive student success. A common task has been predicting students at risk of dropping out for the necessary interventions to be made. However, issues of discrimination by these predictive models based on protected attributes of students…

The under-representation of women in male-dominated STEM fields is a worldwide concern. However, there are other academic fields, like some non-STEM degrees, where female students are over-represented. Previous research has identified five critical factors influencing student participation rates: career choice, satisfaction, self-esteem,…

Andrea Zanellati; Stefano Pio Zingaro; Maurizio Gabbrielli – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Academic dropout remains a significant challenge for education systems, necessitating rigorous analysis and targeted interventions. This study employs machine learning techniques, specifically random forest (RF) and feature tokenizer transformer (FTT), to predict academic attrition. Utilizing a comprehensive dataset of over 40 000 students from an…

Chuan Cai; Adam Fleischhacker – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2024
We propose a novel approach to address the issue of college student attrition by developing a hybrid model that combines a structural neural network with a piecewise exponential model. This hybrid model not only shows the potential to robustly identify students who are at high risk of dropout, but also provides insights into which factors are most…

Powers, Tim E.; Watt, Helen M. G. – Empirical Research in Vocational Education and Training, 2021
Although apprenticeships ease the school-to-work transition for youth, many apprentices seriously consider dropping out. While associated with noncompletions, dropout considerations are important to study in their own right, because they reflect a negative quality of apprenticeship experience and can impact apprentices' quality of learning and…

Baneres, David; Rodriguez-Gonzalez, M. Elena; Guerrero-Roldan, Ana Elena – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2023
Course dropout is a concern in online higher education, mainly in first-year courses when different factors negatively influence the learners' engagement leading to an unsuccessful outcome or even dropping out from the university. The early identification of such potential at-risk learners is the key to intervening and trying to help them before…

R. Cubero-Pérez; M. Cubero; J. A. Matías-García; M. J. Bascón – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Achieving adequate integration and success at school in the post-compulsory stages involving situations where there is a risk of social exclusion is a real identity challenge for adolescents. In this research, we used a convenience sampling and selected two high schools located in Areas in Need of Social Transformation in Seville (southern Spain).…

Jonas Koopmann; Lena M. Zimmer; Markus Lörz – European Journal of Higher Education, 2024
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, contact, education, and employment opportunities have fundamentally changed worldwide. However, various studies have pointed out that not everyone is equally affected by the changed circumstances. This paper focuses on the impact of the pandemic on the study situation in German higher education and explores the…

Zühlke, Anne; Kugler, Philipp; Hackenberger, Armin; Brändle, Tobias – Education Economics, 2022
We analyse the economic returns in lifetime labour income of various educational paths in Germany. Using recent data, we calculate cumulative labour earnings at different ages and for different educational paths while controlling the parental background of individuals. We find that after the age of 55, lifetime labour income is higher for…

Roberts, Nicola – Journal of Further and Higher Education, 2023
Globally, statistical analyses have found a range of variables that predict the odds of first-year students failing to progress at their Higher Education Institution (HEI). Some of these studies have included students from a range of disciplines. Yet despite the rise in the number of criminology students in HEIs in the UK, little statistical…
