Data mining techniques have been found useful in understanding and enhancing student performance as well as decision making related to teaching and learning in HEIs. Literature review enabled the choice of time to degree and cumulative grade point average (CGPA) as examples of student performance factors for investigation. Student features that could be extracted using SQL query from student dataset...
Educational data can help us to personalise university information systems. In this paper, we show how educational data can be used to improve the performance of interaction-based recommender systems. Educational data is transformed to student profiles helping to prevent cold start problems when recommending projects to students with few user interactions. Our results show that our hybrid interaction...

We develop a practical technique in this paper to classify the scholars in different disciplines, organizations according to their research interests. The scholar classification is important to the scholars, research organizations,, government for research, evaluation, education, research resource allocation. It becomes really difficult because name abbreviation, interdisciplinary, especially tautonym...
Forensic handwriting examination is one of the most sophisticated and controversial in terms of the results objectivity. One reason for this is that the result of the examination is affected by the subjectivity of the expert. The article suggests a number of methods to reduce the impact of human factors on the results of handwriting examination. First of all, it is the development of quantitative...
A public cloud platform offers economy of scale, ease of management, and elasticity to solutions. In addition, regulatory compliance and security must be assured for solutions handling sensitive data, such as student and healthcare data. With the steep rise in data breaches at large enterprises, it is a requirement to emphasize the security, privacy, and compliance of cloud-delivered solutions that...
One of the most important issues nowadays is to prepare our children to create a better world in the future. This is an education issue that starts in the very beginning of their lives. How can day care centres and pre-schools contribute for this goal? Our children spend most of their first years in these institutions, and parents trust the teachers and other professionals of education to do a good...
Datamining (DM) brings together a wide range of techniques and algorithms which allow the extraction of knowledge from databases for timely decision making. DM has been applied to different fields of study. One important research field is Education. Applying DM in education is known as educational datamining (EDM). The main purpose of EDM is to analyze data from educational institutions using different...
Electronic business course at Zagreb School of Economics and Managements (higher education economy faculty) is highly practical course with aim to educate students how to use variety of open source information systems for online business purposes. As final project students have to use open source content management system and implement their own business idea using principles taught in theoretical...
The popularity of computer science classes offered through Massive Open On-line Courses (MOOCs) creates both opportunities and challenges. Programming-based classes need to provide consistent development infrastructures that are both scalable and user friendly to students. The "Heterogeneous Parallel Programming" class offered through Coursera teaches GPU programming and encountered these...
In the paper we compare the hierarchical clustering methods with the non-hierarchical ones at an example of analysis of similarity's rate of European Union universities. The main aim of the collation is to find out whether the clusters obtained by different methods correspond in some sense. There are 3 largest universities per each state of the European Union in our database The main criterion of...
This study intends to analyze the design of data warehouse for the lecturer's performance as an effort to quality assurance in evaluate lecturer performance at Faculty of Science and Technology Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University. This evaluation have had conducted in every end of semester and in accordance with the principal task of carrying out the Tridharma Perguruan Tinggi which covering...
The rapid growth of computer technologies has resulted in a corresponding increase in the creation of new loopholes in systems which eventually might result in data leak. Data leakage is an incident in which sensitive information is released to any unauthorized party intentionally or unintentionally. There is a large set of software available which can be used to prevent data leak, however they fail...
The benefits of using assessment tools for programming assignments have been widely discussed in computing education. However, as both researchers and instructors are unaware of the characteristics of existing tools, they are either not used or are reimplemented. This paper presents the results of a study conducted to collect and evaluate evidence about tools that assist in the assessment of programming...

The use of mobile devices has taken a great preponderance in business, personal life and education. One example is the increasing educational applications designed to support learning in different educational use. The use of mobile...
Lectures are one of the medium used in Teaching-Learning strategy. However, amount of knowledge gained by the student is not always equal to the amount of knowledge shared in the lecture. This can be due to several reasons like long lecture hours, lack of concentration of student and many others. If the concepts which are not clearly understood are pre-requisite to understand next/other concept/topic...
The purpose of this study is to investigate the general effect of dictogloss, which is an English teaching approach in Korean EFL. Fifty seven research cases from twenty two studies were used in the meta-analysis. Each study was classified in terms of research target participants (elementary, middle, and high school students), treatment period, and dependent variables. Dependent variables were divided...
This paper presents a methodology for finding the association rules using associative classification which can be used to abstract knowledge from brain MRI images. Reducing the size of images using different thresholds help to reduce the complexity of the proposed system without affecting the correctness of these images. Textural features are taken into consideration because when there is a wide variation...
We show in this paper our experiences and results in teaching different user interface technologies. Our focus is one of the biggest ERP solutions, which offers several UI possibilities. We have recognized that different technologies require different knowledge from programming, design, fantasy and robustness aspects as well. On the other hand the students' age, educational environment, graduate level...
