Timely dropout prediction with learner behavior data

Abstract

I wish to express my greatest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Andy W. H. Khong for his continual support during my Ph.D. Study. His guidance, patience, and encouragement have tremendously benefited me with the skillset and mindset on research. I would like to thank all the members in the research group. It is their kind help and support that have made me to pave towards the completion of my study. I would like to express my gratitude to my family. I would like to honor my father, who gave me the power to persevere. I would like to thank my mother. Without her tremendous understanding and support in the past few years, it would be impossible for me to complete my study. I would like to thank my wife. During my Ph.D. studies, we have been through various life events together. You make me feel loved every day. I'm so blessed of having you. Finally, to my unborn baby: your mom and I are ready to embark on the new expedition with you!
