Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: The objective of this study was to develop a predictive model to prevent academic dropout among students at a technological institute in Puno during the year 2025. The problem addressed lies in the high school dropout rates in rural regions of Peru, influenced by socioeconomic, academic, and personal factors. The research was basic-applied, with a quantitative approach, descriptive and explanatory design, and cross-sectional scope. The population consisted of all students enrolled in the institute in 2025, while the sample consisted of 300 students selected through stratified sampling. The quantitative results show that variables such as poor performance in the first semester, precarious socioeconomic conditions, advanced age at entry, and gender significantly influence the risk of dropping out. The predictive model, based on machine learning techniques such as logistic regression and decision trees, achieved high levels of precision and recall. It is concluded that early identification of at-risk students through predictive models allows for the design of effective intervention strategies. Its institutional implementation is recommended, along with personalized academic, financial, and emotional support measures, which could significantly improve student retention in similar contexts.
