Learners regularly abandon online coding tutorials when they get bored or frustrated, but there are few techniques for anticipating this abandonment to intervene.  ...  In this paper, we examine the feasibility of predicting abandonment with machine-learned classifiers.  ...  Abandonment in Coding Tutorials There has been less work investigating dropout in online coding tutorials.  ...
