Abstract: | This paper explores the application of machine learning for predicting educational development in Nigeria, to determine its progress or regress in Ondo State. Numerous factors impact the performance of educational organizations, viz; infrastructure, learning condition, student ability, the immediacy of teachers, methods of educating and learning, research centers, grounds areas, and so forth served as the variable used for the prediction. The data for the study was obtained from Nigeria Education Digest Statistics Indicator 2005-2016, Ondo State Demographic Digest Statistics 2009. The study developed a predictive model using multiple linear regression, which considers the various factors that determines the progress of education in Nigeria. The result of the evaluation of the model shows that a somewhat rise in the educational development in the country, with regards to the feature attributes considered. The model showed that literacy rate has a higher correlation coefficient of 0.22. |
