The efficiency examination of teaching of different normalization methodsijdms
Normalization is an important database design method, in the course of the teaching of data modeling the
understanding and applying of this method cause problems for students the most. For improving the efficiency
of learning normalization we looked for alternative normalization methods and introduced them into
education. We made a survey among engineer students how efficient could they execute the normalization
with different methods. We executed statistical and data mining examinations to decide whether any of the
methods resulted significantly better solutions.
CRITERION BASED AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF QUESTION PAPERvivatechijri
In any educational course curriculum, the courses are defined with learning objectives. Teachers conduct assessments to know if students have achieved certain learning objectives or not. The Proposed System provides a solution to choose challenging, well framed questions and make it easy for the user to generate it within a short period of time. The existing tools are rigid and support very basic or limited parameters. In our system we allow admin and user to input a set of questions and mark them with parameters such as difficulty level, complexity, type of question, module, min and max weightage. It contains two modules namely admin module and user module and the question management makes it an effortless task. From the entered input the paper is generated and saved as a .pdf file which can be kept for own or distributed as per the user or admin requirements. The required software and hardware are easily available and easy to work with. The goal is to simplify its current manual method, by means of computerised equipment and complete computer applications, in order to meet its needs, so that its important data/information can be stored for a longer period of time with easy access and manipulation. Basically the project describes how to manage for good performance and better services for the clients.

The Architecture of System for Predicting Student Performance based on the Da...Thada Jantakoon
The goals of this study are to develop the architecture of a system for predicting student performance based on data science approaches (SPPS-DSA Architecture) and evaluate the SPPS-DSA Architecture. The research process is divided into two stages: (1) context analysis and (2) development and assessment. The data is analyzed by means of standardized deviations statistically. The research findings suggested that the SPPS-DSA architecture, according to the research findings, consists of three key components: (i) data source, (ii) machine learning methods and attributes, and (iii) data science process. The SPPS-DSA architecture is rated as the highest appropriate overall. Predicting student performance helps educators and students improve their teaching and learning processes. Predicting student performance using various analytical methods is reviewed here. Most researchers used CGPA and internal assessment as data sets. In terms of prediction methods, classification is widely used in educational data science. Researchers most commonly used neural networks and decision trees to predict student performance under classification techniques.
Infusing Technology into a School of NursingExamSoft
Writing a good test engages both sides of your brain: indeed, test item writing is both an art and a skill. The good news is that practice can help you enhance your talents in both of these areas. Preparing multiple-choice and alternative-formatted questions, when done well, challenges you to use your knowledge of sound clinical practice gained over years of experience. But instead of just using this knowledge to determine if a student can recognize some basic facts, when you combine your talents and skills in creating a test that measures critical thinking ability, students’ answers to your well-written test questions can reveal not just whether or not they know the basic facts, but if they can apply them in a real-life situation that requires a high level of decision-making or problem-solving. Because most health science instructors were first clinicians and became academic faculty members much later as they moved along their career paths, the task of constructing critical-thinking test items and reliable and valid tests can seem overwhelming. Join this discussion about honing those item writing skills, and discover your talents using both sides of your brain to create a great test!
Evaluation criteria for different disciplines vary from subject to subject such as Computer science,
Medicine, Management, Commerce, Art, Humanities and so on. Various evaluation criteria are being used
to measure the retention of the students’ knowledge. Some of them are in-class assignments, take home
assignments, group projects, individual projects and final examinations. When conducting lectures in
higher education institutes there can be more than one method to evaluate students to measure their
retention of knowledge. During the short period of the semester system we should be able to evaluate
students in several ways. There are practical issues when applying multiple evaluation criteria. Time
management, number of students per subject, how many lectures delivered per semester and the length of
the syllabus are the main issues.
The focus of this paper however, is on identification, finding advantages and proposing an evaluation
criterion for Computer based testing for programming subjects in higher education institutes in Sri Lanka.
Especially when evaluating hand written answers students were found to have done so many mistakes such
as programming mistakes. Therefore they lose considerable marks. Our method increases the efficiency
and the productivity of the student’s and also reduces the error rate considerably. It also has many benefits
for the lecturer. With the low number of academic members it is hard to spend more time to evaluate them
closely. A better evaluation criterion is very important for the students in this discipline because they
should stand on their own feet to survive in the industry.

DATA MINING IN EDUCATION : A REVIEW ON THE KNOWLEDGE DISCOVERY PERSPECTIVEIJDKP
Knowledge Discovery in Databases is the process of finding knowledge in massive amount of data where
data mining is the core of this process. Data mining can be used to mine understandable meaningful patterns from large databases and these patterns may then be converted into knowledge.Data mining is the process of extracting the information and patterns derived by the KDD process which helps in crucial decision-making.Data mining works with data warehouse and the whole process is divded into action plan to be performed on data: Selection, transformation, mining and results interpretation. In this paper, we have reviewed Knowledge Discovery perspective in Data Mining and consolidated different areas of data
mining, its techniques and methods in it.
Educational Data Mining is used to find interesting patterns from the data taken from
educational settings to improve teaching and learning. Assessing student’s ability and performance with
EDM methods in e-learning environment for math education in school level in India has not been
identified in our literature review. Our method is a novel approach in providing quality math education
with assessments indicating the knowledge level of a student in each lesson. This paper illustrates how
Learning Curve – an EDM visualization method is used to compare rural and urban students’ progress
in learning mathematics in an e-learning environment. The experiment is conducted in two different
schools in Tamil Nadu, India. After practicing the problems the students attended the test and their
interaction data are collected and analyzed their performance in different aspects: Knowledge
component level, time taken to solve a problem, error rate. This work studies the student actions for
identifying learning progress. The results show that the learning curve method is much helpful to the
teachers to visualize the students’ performance in granular level which is not possible manually. Also it
helps the students in knowing about their skill level when they complete each unit.
Information and communication technologies (ICT) have affected all area in a society. Human can learn quickly and accurately from the internet. The aim of this study was to investigate what the problematic internet usage of ICT teachers. Therefore, the present study investigated the problematic internet usage, who worked as an ICT teacher in secondary schools in Turkey. The data collection tools of the study are “Personal Information Form” designed by the researcher, and Problematic Internet Usage Scale. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation test were used for the statistical analysis of the data. The sample group of this study comprised of 119 ICT teachers. At the end of the research, it was found that male ICT teachers received higher scores in problematic internet usage scale when compared to the female ICT teachers. Participants who had been serving as an ICT teacher for six years and more received higher scores in problematic internet usage level when compared to the other groups.

Educational data mining (EDM) is one of the applications of data mining. In educational data mining, there are two key domains, i.e. student domain and faculty domain. Different type of research work has been done in both domains.
In existing system the faculty performance has calculated on the basis of two parameters i.e. Student feedback and the result of student in that subject. In existing system we define two approaches one is multiple classifier approach and the other is a single classifier approach and comparing them, for relative evaluation of faculty performance using data mining
Techniques. In multiple classifier approach K-nearest neighbor (KNN) is used in first step and Rule based classification is used in the second step of classification while in single classifier approach only KNN is used in both steps of classification.
But in proposed system, I will analyse the faculty performance using 4 parameters i.e., student complaint about faculty, Student review feedback for faculty, students feedback, and students result etc.
For this proposed system I will be going to use opinion mining technique for analyzing performance of faculty and calculating score of each faculty.
Performance Evaluation of Feature Selection Algorithms in Educational Data Mi...IIRindia
Educational Data mining(EDM)is a prominent field concerned with developing methods for exploring the unique and increasingly large scale data that come from educational settings and using those methods to better understand students in which they learn. It has been proved in various studies and by the previous study by the authors that data mining techniques find widespread applications in the educational decision making process for improving the performance of students in higher educational institutions. Classification techniques assumes significant importance in the machine learning tasks and are mostly employed in the prediction related problems. In machine learning problems, feature selection techniques are used to reduce the attributes of the class variables by removing the redundant and irrelevant features from the dataset. The aim of this research work is to compares the performance of various feature selection techniques is done using WEKA tool in the prediction of students’ performance in the final semester examination using different classification algorithms.

Data mining approach to predict academic performance of studentsBOHRInternationalJou1
Powerful data mining techniques are available in a variety of educational fields. Educational research is
advancing rapidly due to the vast amount of student data that can be used to create insightful patterns
related to student learning. Educational data mining is a tool that helps universities assess and identify student
performance. Well-known classification techniques have been widely used to determine student success in
data mining. A decisive and growing exploration area in educational data mining (EDM) is predicting student
academic performance. This area uses data mining and automaton learning approaches to extract data from
education repositories. According to relevant research, there are several academic performance prediction
methods aimed at improving administrative and teaching staff in academic institutions. In the put-forwarded
approach, the collected data set is preprocessed to ensure data quality and labeled student education data
is used to apply ANN classifiers, support vector classifiers, random forests, and DT Compute and train a
classifier. The achievement of the four classifications is measured by accuracy value, receiver operating curve
(ROC), F1 score, and confusion matrix scored by each model. Finally, we found that the top three algorithmic
models had an accuracy of 86–95%, an F1 score of 85–95%, and an average area under ROC curve of

Keywords: Electronic Class Record, Makiling National High School
I. INTRODUCTION
Before the school year of the next academic calendar starts, teachers are preparing for their stuffs. One
of their stuff is the class record. The class record is a document contains the record of performance of their
students. In several institutions class record is distributed. The teachers will use it by transferring the grades of
students from source in any form to the class record. Human error is always present in computation of grades.
The time it takes to transfer the record from the source to the template is also of great concerns and time
consuming.
To help the teachers in their class records concerns, an electronic class record was designed and
developed. The intention of this is to come up with a design of electronic class records that will be utilized by
the teachers of Makiling National High School.
Literature Review
According to Dellosa (2013), the deployed electronic class record was very useful to teachers and
resulted to an overall evaluation of an average mean of 3.46 and average standard deviation of 0.538 with an
overall interpretation of agree result. User-friendliness ranked as first with the highest mean value of 3.8. The
output‟s security and flexibility were rated with strongly agree. In terms of accuracy, reliability, validity, and
efficiency, the output was rated with agree which also implies that the evaluators were satisfied on the developed
system. It is found out that the deployed electronic class record is acceptable in terms of accuracy, efficiency,
reliability, security, user-friendliness, flexibility and validity.
The study entitled “e-DoX: DEPED Student Grade Records Management System with Implementation
of Advanced Encryption Standard and PKI Infrastructure for the Department of Education in the Province of
Cavite (2013)” which aims to develop an online based application to aid private and public schools in
submission of reports on promotions in the province of Cavite was used to guide the researcher on how to treat
and interpret data and results.
An electronic class record for the LPU-Laguna and LPU-St. Cabrini is developed as a substitute to the
conventional ways of recording the performance of the students. The researcher based his method of developing
the electronic class record to lessen the activities and customized the content of the output (Dellosa, 2013).
DEPED Order No 73, Series of 2012 entitled “Guidelines and Assessment and Learning Outcomes under the K-
12 Basic Education Curriculum” was used to guide the researcher as the basis of computation of grades. The
level of assessment that includes knowledge, process or skills, understanding and product and level of
proficiency are some of the useful information that serves as inputs in the completion of the study.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was founded in 1946 in order to unify industrial
standards by providing a single set of standards that would be recognized and followed (Praxiom Research
Group). The ISO 9126 was developed in 1991 to provide a framework for evaluating software quality. It was
refined over a ten year period (Abran, 2003). The metrics introduced and validated from this study were
considered and became the basis of the researcher to come up with the survey evaluation form of the electronic
class records.

Sommerville (2011) discussed that security is one of the important attributes of the system to protect itself from
accidental or incidental attacks. He also tackled some of the methodology on how to develop the system
including Rapid Application Development, prototyping and formal methods. The researcher focused on the use
of prototype method information and applied it in this study.
Chen‟s (1997) study entitled “Computer-based Document Management System”, leads to an efficient
way to automatically import, index, categorize, store, search, retrieve, manipulate and archive electronic
documents. This will be entrant information for online application. The researcher used the discussion and
output of this study to come up with a study recommendation that online grade viewer is possible.
According to Chua, B.B. & Dyson, L.E. (2004), there is a widespread use of e-learning systems and investment
in them but there is no consensus on a standard framework for evaluating the quality of the output. In their
study, they used ISO 9126 Quality Model as a useful tool for evaluating systems, particularly for teachers and
educational administrators. They also demonstrated the validity of the model and used to detect design
loopholes. The ISO 9126 is used by the researcher as a guide to come up with a survey and evaluation
instrument.
II. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
The input includes the basic knowledge of Microsoft Excel application software, which is capable of arithmetic
computations. The process includes brainstorming with the possible users, development, training and evaluation.
Several arithmetic operands and functions include VLOOKUP, IF, COUNTIF and other arithmetic functions are

V. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
Summary of Findings
Microsoft Excel application software was useful in developing the electronic class record. Electronic class
record functionality is determined with the input data like name of teacher, course code, course title, section,
schedule, room, student number, student name, grade level, gender, date of each classes, base grade, test items,
attendance and performance of the students.
Developmental process and prototyping method were utilized to develop the electronic class record. Testing,
deployment and evaluation have been initiated to observe its acceptability.
The attendance sheet tab is used to tabulate the absences and tardiness of each student. Character “A” is
designated code for absence, and “L” for tardiness. The total number of absences and tardiness can be
automatically computed. It is displayed in the designated cells every month. The total accumulated absences and
tardiness is also computed and is displayed in the designated cell.
First (1st) to fourth (4th) quarter worksheet tabs are of the same functions. Its function is to accept inputs from
the end user. The inputs from the user are the total number of credit points and the actual score of students for
each assessment activity, date per assessment activity and the percentage equivalent per total assessment. These
worksheet tabs will automatically compute and provide grades and their equivalent level of proficiency in the
designated cells.
The grade sheet tab is used to display the summary of grades of each student per quarter and the final grade of
each student. It also shows the summary of total students who belong with the different levels of proficiency.
This grade sheet tab is one of the documents to be submitted to the principal per grading period.
Summary of ranking per quarters and finals is also provided to easily determine the top and least performing
students.
A series of tests and investigation were conducted to ensure the acceptability of the output from the user. Focus
group discussions were used to determine the acceptability of the electronic class records.
VI. CONCLUSION
Based on the findings of the study, the researcher concluded that the electronic class record is
developed for the teachers of the Makiling National High School. It follows the grading system as per
Department of Education standards. With the aid of computer system, class record can be easily. Finally, the
electronic class record is acceptable and subject for implementation effective SY 2014-2015.
Recommendations
Several recommendations are made by the end users and administrators like the security of previous
encoded grade must not be changed anymore once it is submitted. The output of the electronic class record may
be the basis for report card. Moreover, the output of the electronic class record may be considered as an input to
an online grade viewer.
