This research provides a review of the state of the art with respect to EDM and discusses the most relevant work in this area to date. Each study has been discussed considering type of data and data mining techniques used, and the kind of the educational task that they resolve. EDM is upcoming research area related to well-established areas of research such as e- learning, tutoring systems, web mining, data mining. Current literature show how fast educational data analysis area is growing and there is an increasing number of contributions that publish in International Journals and Conferences every year. However, educational data mining is still not a mature area. Some interesting future suggestion to develop this area has been presented. This research is a presentation of current and ancient literature of Predicting Student Performance using Data Mining.

Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) are inherently adaptive e-learning systems usually created for teaching well-defined domains (e.g., mathematics). Their objective is to guide the student towards a predefined goal such as completing a lesson, task, or mastering a skill. Defining goals and guiding students is more complex in ill-defined domains where the expert defines the model of the knowledge domain or the students have freedom to follow their own path through it. In this paper we present an overview of our systems architecture that integrates the ITS with data mining tools and performs a number of educational data mining processes to increase the adaptivity and, consequently, the efficiency of the ITS.

Using Data

This article presents the results of connecting an educational data mining techniques to the academic performance of students. Three classification models (Decision Tree, Random Forest and Deep Learning) have been developed to analyze data sets and predict the performance of students. The projected submission of the three classificatory was calculated and matched. The academic history and data of the students from the Office of the Registrar were used to train the models. Our analysis aims to evaluate the results of students using various variables such as the student's grade. Data from (221) students with (9) different attributes were used. The results of this study are very important, provide a better understanding of student success assessments and stress the importance of data mining in education. The main purpose of this study is to show the student successful forecast using data mining techniques to improve academic programs. The results of this research indicate that the Decision Tree classifier overtakes two other classifiers by achieving a total prediction accuracy of 97%.

Using Data

Educational data mining is an emerging discipline that focuses on development of self-learning and adaptive methods. It is used for finding hidden patterns or intrinsic structures of educational data. In the field of education, the heterogeneous data is involved and continuously growing in the paradigm of big data. To extract meaningful knowledge adaptively from big educational data, some specific data mining techniques are needed. This paper presents a personalized e-learning system architecture which detects and responds teaching contents according to the students’ learning capabilities. Furthermore, the clustering approach is also presented to partition the students into different groups based on their learning behavior. The primary objective includes the discovery of optimal settings, in which learners can improve their learning capabilities to boost up their outcomes. Moreover, the administration can find essential hidden patterns to bring the effective reforms in the existing system. The various clustering methods K-means, Clustering by Fast Search and Finding of Density Peaks (CFSFDP), and CFSFDP via Heat Diffusion (CFSFDP-HD) are also analyzed using educational data mining. It is observed that more robust results can be achieved by the replacement of K-means with CFSFDP and CFSFDP-HD. The proposed e-learning system using data mining techniques is vigorous compared to typical e-learning systems. The data mining techniques are equally effective to analyze the big data to make education systems robust.

Now a day’s e-learning is smartly growing technology. This technology is more helpful for students to communicate with their professors through chats or emails. ELearning also removes the obstacle of physical presence of an Elearner. The main aim of this paper is to predict student performance in their final exams using different machine learning techniques. Information like attendance, marks, assignments, class participation, seminar, CA, projects and semester are collected to predict student performance. This prediction helps the instructors to analyze their students based on their performance. For that we have used WEKA tool for the prediction of the student performance. WEKA (Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis) is one of the data mining too which is used for the classification and clustering using data mining algorithms. This prediction helps the students and the staffs to know how much effort their students need to be put in their final exams to get good marks.
