Description

Data science can be used in higher education both to forecast the final grades of the students considering continuous evaluations and to help students to perform their tasks when the teacher is not with them. These two use cases can help both students and teachers to improve the learning experience. 

This webinar will help attendees learn about: 

 Final grades forecasting in higher education from continuous grades 

 Intelligent Tutoring Systems to help zooarchaeology students to classify animals from bone fragments in Middle Palaeolithic excavation sites

 Analyzing educational data from a sex and gender perspective
