ASSESSMENT OF ACTORS THAT INFLUENCE STUDENT ABSENTEEISM IN AN EDUCATIONAL PLATFORM THAT USES MACHINE LEARNING

Povzetek

The current document analyzes how the dynamics of student absenteeism occur, through the strategic approach provided by the MACTOR method. The main objective is to identify the power, influence, and dependency relationships between the actors and their degree of commitment to institutional objectives. In this way, it was a mixed-type research, which used the techniques of valued position matrices and graphs of convergence and divergence to assess possible conflicts, alignments, and capacities for action. The results show that the most influential actors are the administrative ones, with a high commitment to strategic objectives, while students and parents have less capacity for action and are shown to be very dependent. Critical objectives were identified such as the early detection of absenteeism and the strengthening of the family environment. The conclusions highlight the importance of collaboration between actors, the strategic allocation of resources, and the implementation of technological systems to monitor and mitigate absenteeism. This work offers practical tools that help decision-making in the educational field and offers a methodological basis that can be replicated by similar educational centers.
