In order to anticipate the final exam grades of students studying software engineering, this study suggests a learning analytics framework based on machine learning algorithms, using component grades as the source data. The dataset included the academic performance grades of 1475 students who enrolled in a private university for a year to take a Java Web Programming course. To estimate the students' final test grades, the Naive Bayes and Decision Tree algorithms' performances�which are among the machine learning algorithms were calculated and compared. A multitude of features, including the assignment, practical exam, two progress test, two workshop, and final exam, were used to make the predictions. Such data-driven research is crucial for developing a framework for learning analytics in higher education and for influencing decision-making. © 2022 IEEE. %Z cited By 0; Conference of 2022 International Conference on Digital Transformation and Intelligence, ICDI 2022 ; Conference Date: 1 December 2022 Through 2 December 2022; Conference Code:185994
