Abstract

The main objective of this study is to apply data mining techniques to predict and analyze students' academic performance based on their academic record and forum participation.Educational Data Mining (EDM) is an emerging tool for academic intervention.The educational institutions can use EDU for extensive analysis of students' characteristics.In this study, we have collected students' data from two undergraduate courses.Three different data mining classification algorithms (Naï ve Bayes, Neural Network, and Decision Tree) were used on the dataset.The prediction performance of three classifiers are measured and compared.It was observed that Naï ve Bayes classifier outperforms other two classifiers by achieving overall prediction accuracy of 86%.This study will help teachers to improve student academic performance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
