Analyzing Student’s Learning Interests in the Implementation of Blended Learning Using Data Mining

Abstract

<p class="0keywords">Blended Learning combines teaching and learning activities in the classroom and online teaching. In its implementation, this learning method requires a lot of data. One of them is the student's online test score data which can be used as an evaluation of learning. For this reason, in this study, data mining is used to determine the results of online student examinations as well as to determine student interest in learning about the implementation of Blended Learning. Data mining techniques are used in the logs of online learning session results, so that one can assess the online learning system used. By assessing the system, it can be identified which students who have studied hard and those who have not studied in the online exam. The series data used are student test score data on the State Polytechnic of Malang Learning Management System (LMS). The student score dataset is arranged based on variables in the Educational Process Mining (EPM) Dataset of UCI, which are obtained from teacher’s assignments. In addition, data mining classification is used to determine student interest in learning towards blended learning. In the process of data mining, comparative analysis is carried out using the features of the RapidMiner tool to carry out the process of student data for training and data validation. This process uses several algorithms along with student data which is divided into two sets for training and validation. From the results of data mining calculations produce a classification with minimum errors. From the test, the resulting linear regression algorithm has RMSE 0.000 and SE 0.000, while the neural network algorithm has RMSE 0.525 and SE 0.275.</p>

Application of Data Mining and Imputation Algorithms for Missing Value Handling: A Study Case Car Evaluation Dataset

“…Data mining is a field of several scientific fields that combines techniques from machine learning, pattern recognition, statistics, databases, and visualization for handling problems of retrieving information from large databases [16]. Broadly speaking, data mining can be grouped into two main categories, namely [17]: a) descriptive mining, which is a process to find important characteristics of data in a database.…”

Use of Big Data Technology for Network Classroom Teaching Quality Management

“…It's worth noting that consideration should be given to the acceptance of students in the classroom before introducing new teaching links. According to the teaching practice theory, the acceptance L(y j ) of teaching link was regarded as the monotonic increasing function of z (1) (y j ). Based on this, the relationships between L(y j ) and z (1) (y j ) were expressed as follows:…”

“…With the rapid development of information and network technology, network classroom teaching has become important in teaching [1][2][3]. However, network classroom teaching quality management has always been an urgent problem to be solved [4][5][6][7][8].…”

Value Assessment of Online Educational Resources in the Context of Blended Learning

“…With technological advancements and constant development of informatization education, blended learning, which combines traditional face-to-face teaching with online teaching, is becoming an important direction of educational reform. The blended learning reform aims to better give full play to the professional ability of teachers while providing students with more personalized and diverse learning experiences [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Therefore, one of its important topics is undoubtedly effective utilization of online educational resources, especially accurate assessment of their value.…”
