Predicting Attitude of Indian Student’s Towards ICT and Mobile Technology for Real-Time: Preliminary Results

Abstract

This paper proposed a novel futuristic approach to support the educational informatics and overcome the conventional system of attitude measure. For this, we presented a significant predictive model to identify the attitude of students towards technology. The present approach not only explored the impact of the technology but also predicted an opinion of students. The concept of an online awareness model may overcome the traditional method. We have performed the descriptive and inferential statistics to predict the attitude of Indian students towards the ICTMT in university education with primary data samples. Factor Analysis (FA) using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has extracted the prominent two components with nine features for technology benefits and six features for the technology use. The SQuareRoot (SQRT) and Log transformations have been used to decrease the Skewness, and it has also improved the association between attitude and educational benefit. Overall reliability of the gathered data sample size of 163 calculated 0.957 provided with Cronbach alpha test. This study has used a Pearson Correlation (PC) for exploring the technology impact and the Linear Regression Model (LRM) for the prediction. The LRM has substantiated that the educational benefit explained the attitude significantly, and a significant positive association discovered using the PC with a value of 0.75. The LRM model projected nine most significant educational benefits of ICTMT, which affected the attitude of the Indian student towards technology. We have proposed technology aids in building online predictive model wires real-time prediction.

Survey Paper on Enhancing Information Based Learning System Using Educational Data Mining

“…Remesh, Parkavi, and Yasodha conducted a study on the placement chance prediction by investigating the different techniques such as Naive Bayes Simple, MultiLayerPerception, SMO, J48, and REPTree by its accuracy. From the result they concluded that MultiLayerPerception technique is more suitable than other algorithms [14]. Tair M M A and El-Halees presented a case study with a set of data collected from degree holders of college 'Science and Technology, Khanyounis', during the period of 1993 to 2007.…”
