Resumen

Uno de los grandes retos de la educación en los últimos años ha sido predecir con precisión y fiabilidad el rendimiento de los alumnos para poder aplicar distintas estrategias que les ayuden a afrontar sus deficiencias académicas. Basado en este hecho, el objetivo principal de este trabajo es aplicar un enfoque de transferencia de aprendizaje en los registros del sistema de gestión de aprendizaje (i.e., Moodle) para obtener una buena portabilidad del modelo y, con eso, predecir el rendimiento de los estudiantes de pregrado. Se implementaron dos escenarios diferentes considerando las actividades de cada curso utilizado en Moodle, el primer escenario, con el grupo de cursos similares de la misma especialidad, y el segundo escenario, con el grupo de niveles de uso de actividades. Se realizó un análisis empírico para evaluar el rendimiento de los modelos creados con tres algoritmos de clasificación bien conocidos (i.e., Árbol de Decisión, Bosque Aleatorio y Naive Bayes). Además, las métricas AUC ROC, F-Measure, Precision y Recall se utilizaron como medidas predictivas para elegir los mejores modelos y evaluar su rendimiento de portabilidad a los otros cursos. Los resultados experimentales nos animan a afirmar que es posible aplicar la transferencia de modelos predictivos a un mismo grupo de cursos en la mayoría de los casos.
