A mixed-method approach analyzed academic grades data from the past three years, with ARIMA identifying time series trends and machine learning models predicting academic outcomes based on various variables. Results show ARIMA effectively maps academic trends, while Random Forest excels in handling complex relationships, with an RMSE of 1.12 and an MAE of 0.94. These findings highlight the potential of combining statistical models and machine learning in developing adaptive learning strategies and data-driven decision-making. This approach offers a robust framework for improving educational outcomes and can guide future research in predictive analytics for educational systems.\u003Cbr>This isan open access article under the CC BY-SA license.\u003Cbr> |\n| Erwinsyah Simanungkalit,\u003Cbr>Department of Business Management Politeknik Negeri Medan, Indonesia, Email: [erwinsyahsimanungkalit@polmed.ac.id](erwinsyahsimanungkalit@polmed.ac.id) |  |\n| 1. INTRODUCTION\u003Cbr>Applied mathematics plays an important role in modern education, especially in connecting theoretical concepts with practical applications in various fields. However, many students do not yet know its application and often face challenges in understanding and applying applied mathematics concepts effectively. Difficulties occur due to various internal and external factors such as the use of teaching approaches that still emphasize too much on memorizing formulas and procedures without providing a deep understanding of the real applications of these concepts [1] .\u003Cbr>Several studies have identified challenges in applied mathematics learning. Developed an intervention in mathematics learning and education to help students who are struggling and at risk of having difficulty understanding mathematics, showing that a tailored approach can improve students' understanding. In addition, an |  |\n\nJournal homepage:[http://jurnal.uinsu.ac.id/index.php/zero/index](http://jurnal.uinsu.ac.id/index.php/zero/index)  \napproach to mathematics learning that still emphasizes exploration and understanding rather than performance has been shown to improve students' motivation and learning outcomes.  \nOne of the main problems in traditional teacher practice is the reliance on subjective judgment and personal experience in teaching and predicting student academic performance, which is often not supported by historical or objective data analysis. This approach is prone to bias, is less adaptive to the complexity of the modern education system, and has the potential to cause delays in intervention for students with learning difficulties. In this context, the integration of ARIMA models and Machine Learning algorithms becomes very relevant as a solution based on Applied Mathematics. ARIMA can identify long-term trends in academic score data, while algorithms such as Random Forest are able to capture the complex relationships between variables that influence student performance. The combination of these two methods allows for more accurate, adaptive, and evidence-based decision-making, so that teachers can design more targeted interventions and support more responsive learning st","cbCaiu7HBlqGMmpz","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiu7HBlqGMmpz","pdf",977009,1,"English","en",105,"# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Challenges in applied mathematics learning\n## Limitations of traditional teacher judgment\n## Rationale for ARIMA + machine learning\n# Related Work\n## ARIMA and statistical/probabilistic models in education\n## Machine learning approaches for academic prediction","[{\"question\":\"Which models are used to forecast student academic performance?\",\"answer\":\"The study uses ARIMA for time-series trend identification and two machine learning methods—Random Forest and Multiple Linear Regression—to predict outcomes based on multiple variables.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the data and analysis approach conducted?\",\"answer\":\"A mixed-method approach analyzes academic grades collected over the past three years, combining ARIMA trend modeling with machine learning outcome prediction.\"},{\"question\":\"What do the results show about ARIMA and Random Forest performance?\",\"answer\":\"ARIMA is effective at mapping academic trends, while Random Forest better captures complex relationships among variables;
