University students'management, especially the decision-making part, is very heavy and complicated, so it may have subjectivity without scientific measures. As key index in students' integrated development evaluation, students' quality evaluation achievements play an important role in their development. This thesis puts forward decision support system for students'comprehensive evaluation based on...
Nowadays, there is more and more network education public sentiment information on internet and it has produced a significant impact on education. More and more hide information which is useful can be mined; therefore, this paper constructs a model about the application of the text mining technology in monitoring the network education public sentiment, according to the characteristics of the network...
The form-noticing language learners show in the language output and feedback is the key to improving the quality of output. While form-noticing has been increasingly researched by many language teachers, effects of proficiency and sex and its impact on subsequent learning in the context of EFL writing have not been fully investigated through data mining. This study examined EFL students' English vocabulary...
Using decision tree algorithm C4.5 to establish a classification rule and an analysis-forecasting model for students'marks. Describing how the analysis-forecasting result can be used to find out the factors which can affect students' marks, so some negative learning habits or behaviors of students can be revealed and corrected in time. And the teaching effect of the teacher can be checked, the teaching...
This article and the project in which is integrated, is part of the TIC tools in Higher education. The project integrates a biometric identification module based on techniques of fingerprint recognition in the educational communities and learning management systems where most of the courses for distance education are held. It seeks its integration into traditional or local environments. The project...
A modeling approach for learning processes is utilized to process, evaluate and refine them. A formerly-developed concept called storyboarding has been applied at Tokyo Denki University (TDU) to model the various curricula for students to progress in their studies. Along with this particular storyboard, we developed a data mining technology to estimate chances for success for the students following...
Data warehouse course is a discipline that includes many subjects. There are theoretical teaching and practical teaching in this course. This paper introduces a new teaching method that is called an embedded teaching method. This method is applied to the data warehouse course successfully. Firstly, the ideas of this method are presented. Some associative knowledge in other courses is integrated to...
Considering the data in the current universities grade management is huge and it has not been reasonably analyzed. The student's grade is analyzed using rough set theory and a data mining algorithm based on rough set is proposed. The experiment shows that the algorithm can analyze the student's grade effectively. The mining analysis algorithm can be also applied to students information management,...
This paper presents an applied study in data mining and knowledge discovery. It aims at discovering patterns within historical students' academic and financial data at UST (University of Science and Technology) from the year 1993 to 2005 in order to contribute improving academic performance at UST. Results show that these rules concentrate on three main issues, students' academic achievements (successes...
The existing e-campus management system continues to develop intensely driving the service requirements towards a deep application base in data sharing and operation cooperation. The article introduces SOA technology and the superiority of composing services according to the requirements of an information system. This article also brings forward the architecture and construction of the e-campus management...
With the development of information, large exponent ascend of information capacity make the traditional database retrieval query mechanism and statistics analysis methods not meet the need of reality. Under this background, data analysis methods were put forward and this made people have ability to know the genuine value of data. And, data analysis technology and data warehouse technology have been...
Universities are increasingly large in size, with non-traditional students, inadequate student-teacher ratios, declining financial support from the state, increased competition for external funds and increased competition for limited student demand. The main objective of this ongoing research is to investigate existing decision support systems capable of supporting the provisions of higher education...
Web mining is the use of data mining technologies to automatically interact and discover information from Web documents, which can be in structured, unstructured or semi-structured form. The Web has become a major vehicle in performing research and education related activities for researches and students. There is tremendous amount of information and knowledge existing on the Web and waiting to be...
Educational process mining (EPM) aims at (i) constructing complete and compact educational process models that are able to reproduce all observed behavior (process model discovery), (ii) checking whether the modeled behavior (either pre-authored or discovered from data) matches the observed behavior (conformance checking), and (iii) projecting information extracted from the logs onto the model, to...
There are many Web-based curriculums in which the chapter navigation is designed as directory tree. In most cases, developing the directory tree requires a large quantity of code and the chapter navigation lacks flexibility as well as extensibility. In our method, we rationally integrated EXTJS with WEBWORK in the JAVA platform. The EXTJS code was directly introduced on the JSP page. The data required...
This paper describes in details innovative course outcomes' assessment tools used by the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at Sultan Qaboos University. A course outcomes' assessment program, developed in house, is used to evaluate the contributions of a given course, training, or any other item in the curriculum to the design, delivery and achievement of program outcomes. The program...
Developing the business and transferable skills of students is a challenge in the higher education environment. The issue is how to simulate a business environment to give students a realistic experience. If it is possible to give a realistic experience, the next challenge is what are the best ways to measure if the students have actually developed their skills? This paper is about introducing a practice...
Contribution: This research contributes a new understanding of classification of learners in a CSET classroom within a conceptual framework. We compared the grades for students in each classification for a few large classrooms. The results were sufficiently interesting to justify further empirical studies on the subject. Description: A particular set of classification of learners, drawn from Malcolm...
Short answers essay typed examination requires the students to write their answers in short sentences. Marking the short answers essay typed examination requires lecturers to compare the similarity of sentences from the answer scripts and marking scheme. Sentence similarity is defined as sentences that have similar meaning but they are different because of the words used or their construction structure...
Writing effective and efficient exams is a crucial component of the teaching and learning process. Exams are a common approach to assess student learning and the results are useful in a variety of ways. Most often, results are used to provide students with feedback on what they have learnt or to evaluate the instructional effectiveness of a course. Certainty-Based Marking (CBM) scores an objective...
