Mining Educational Data To Analyze

The document discusses how data mining techniques can be used to analyze student performance data in higher education to extract hidden knowledge. It proposes a data mining model for higher education that uses decision tree classification to evaluate student performance and identify students at risk of dropping out or those needing extra attention or counseling. The goal is to help higher education institutions provide better quality education and guidance to students.

Mining Educational Data to Analyze BASED ON Students’

Performance
SYNOPSIS

The main objective of higher education institutions is to provide quality education to its
students. One way to achieve highest level of quality in higher education system is by
discovering knowledge for prediction regarding enrolment of students in a particular course,
alienation of traditional classroom teaching model, detection of unfair means used in online
examination, detection of abnormal values in the result sheets of the students, prediction about
students’ performance and so on. The knowledge is hidden among the educational data set and it
is extractable through data mining techniques. Present paper is designed to justify the capabilities
of data mining techniques in context of higher education by offering a data mining model for
higher education system in the university. In this research, the classification task is used to
evaluate student’s performance and as there are many approaches that are used for data
classification, the decision tree method is used here.

By this task we extract knowledge that describes students’ performance in end semester
examination. It helps earlier in identifying the dropouts and students who need special attention
And allow the teacher to provide appropriate advising/counseling.
