The paper aims to analyse Educational Data Mining/Learning Analytics application trends to personalise learning. First of all, systematic literature review was performed. Based on the systematic review analysis, the main trends on applying educational data mining methods to personalise learning were identified. Second, three main tendencies on educational data mining/learning analytics application in education were formulated. They are: (a) Educational Data Mining/Learning Analytics support self-directed autonomous learning; (b) Educational Data Mining/Learning Analytics systems become essential tools of educational management; and (c) most teaching is delegated to computers, and Educational Data Mining/Learning Analytics based recommendations become better and more reliable than those that can be produced by even the best-trained teachers.

New high-frequency multimodal data collection technologies and machine learning analysis techniques could offer new insights into learning, especially when students have the opportunity to generate unique, personalized artifacts, such as computer programs, robots, and solutions engineering challenges. To date most of the work on learning analytics and educational data mining has been focused on online courses and cognitive tutors, both of which provide a high degree of structure to the tasks, and are restricted to interactions that occur in front of a computer screen. In this paper, we argue that multimodal learning analytics can offer new insights into students’ learning trajectories in more complex and open-ended learning environments. We present several examples of this work and its educational application.

In the IT world, predicting the academic performance of the huge student population poses a big challenge. Educational data mining techniques significantly contribute in providing solution to this problem. There are several prediction methods available for data classification and clustering, to extract information and provide accurate results. In this paper, different prediction methodologies are highlighted for the prediction of real-time data analysis of dynamic academic behavior of the students. The main focus is to provide brief knowledge about all data mining techniques and highlight dissimilarities among various methods in order to provide the best results for the students.

Reinforcement of the technology-enhanced education transformed education into a data-intensive domain. As in many other data-intensive domains, the interest for data analysis through various analytics is growing. The article starts by defining LA, with relevant views on the literature. A discussion about the relationships between LA, educational data mining and academic analytics is included in the background section. In the main section of the article, the learning analytics, as an emerging trend in the educational systems is describe, by discussing the main issues, controversies, problems on this topic. Final part of the article presents the future research directions and the conclusion.

Educational data mining (EDM) creates high impact in the field of academic domain. EDM is concerned with developing new methods to discover knowledge from educational and academic database and can be used for decision making in educational and academic systems. EDM is useful in many different areas including identifying at risk students, identifying priority learning needs for different groups of students, increasing graduation rates, effectively assessing institutional performance, maximizing campus resources, and optimizing subject curriculum renewal. This chapter discusses educational data mining, its applications, and techniques that have to be adopted in order to successfully employ educational data mining and learning analytics for improving teaching and learning. The techniques and applications discussed in this chapter will provide a clear-cut idea to the educational data mining researchers to carry out their work in this field.

In higher education, the demand for improved information in relation to educational and learning outcomes is greater than ever before. Leveraging technology, new models of education have emerged that are not only improving modes of lecture delivery and information retention, but also generating huge amounts of data. This data is potentially a gold mine that needs to be explored to uncover patterns associated with student behavior and how information is processed, retained and used by the students. This chapter proposes a generic model that uses the techniques of educational data mining to explore and analyze Big Data being generated by the education sector. This chapter also examines the various questions that can be answered using educational data mining methods and how the discovered patterns can be used to enrich the learning experience of a student as well as help teachers make pedagogical decisions.
