The focus is on improving students' learning experiences by using Machine Learning (ML) algorithms to (i) identify a student's preferred learning style (visual or auditory) and (ii) predict academic dropout risk. A Logistic Regression algorithm is applied for binary classification using six predictor variables, such as assessment scores, lesson duration, and preferred learning style, to accurately identify learning preferences. In comparison, the Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) classifier achieved an accuracy of 83.1% on the same dataset Individual feedback to students and customized learning materials has a significant impact on their learning ability and have been areas of active research focus [1]. However, in the United States, due to the vast diversity in classroom populations, it becomes inherently difficult for educators to customize lessons and address individual students' problems [2]. V arious factors contribute to the effectiveness of individual learning processes [3,4]. Questionnaires have often been used as a tool to predict an individual's learning style [5 - 8]. Learning analytics, which involves the collection, analysis, and use of da ta, has been suggested to improve students' learning experiences [9]. In most cases, these assessments have been used to generalize the overall learning patterns of a classroom rather than addressing the needs of individual students. The concept of a SMART classroom incorporates both hardware and software components to adapt to dynamic learning patterns in a classroom, and it has been an area of ongoing research [10,11].
