Mining educational data, also known as Educational Data Mining (EDM), is the process of using data mining techniques and methodologies to educational data in order to gain insights and make informed judgements relevant to the field of education. This process is also known as Educational Data Mining (EDM). In the field of electronic direct marketing (EDM), a number of novel approaches have emerged over the course of the last few years. The following are examples of some of them: Insights on the Behavior of Learners: Learning analytics focuses on the measurement, collection, analysis, and reporting of data about learners and the settings in which they are learning in order to enhance not just the environments in which learning takes place but also the learning itself. This is done with the goal of making learning both more effective and more enjoyable. It comprises the use of data mining and statistical methods to find patterns and trends in educational data, with the ultimate goal of enabling educators to make decisions that are data-informed. A method that makes use of machine learning algorithms in order to produce projections regarding a range of educational outcomes, such as student performance, dropout rates, or learning obstacles, is referred to as "predictive modeling," and its usage has been given the title "predictive modeling" as a term of art. By looking at data from the past, such as grades, attendance, and engagement levels, predictive models are able to identify patterns and provide forecasts for future student performance or behavior. Predictive models are also able to anticipate how students will behave in the future.

The series, Contemporary Perspectives on Data Mining, is composed of blind refereed scholarly research methods and applications of data mining. This series will be targeted both at the academic community, as well as the business practitioner. Data mining seeks to discover knowledge from vast amounts of data with the use of statistical and mathematical techniques. The knowledge is extracted from this data by examining the patterns of the data, whether they be associations of groups or things, predictions, sequential relationships between time order events or natural groups. Data mining applications are in marketing (customer loyalty, identifying profitable customers, instore promotions, e-commerce populations); in business (teaching data mining, efficiency of the Chinese automobile industry, moderate asset allocation funds); and techniques (veterinary predictive models, data integrity in the cloud, irregular pattern detection in a mobility network and road safety modeling.)

This book emphasizes that learning efficiency of the learners can be increased by providing personalized course materials and guiding them to attune with suitable learning paths based on their characteristics such as learning style, knowledge level, emotion, motivation, self-efficacy and many more learning ability factors in e-learning system. Learning is a continuous process since human evolution. In fact, it is related to life and innovations. The basic objective of learning to grow, aspire and develop ease of life remains the same despite changes in the learning methodologies. Introduction of computers empowered us to attain new zenith in knowledge domain, developed pragmatic approach to solve life’s problem and helped us to decipher different hidden patterns of data to get new ideas. Of late, computers are predominantly used in education. Its process has been changed from offline to online in view of enhancing the ease of learning. With the advent of information technology, e-learning has taken centre stage in educational domain. In e-learning context, developing adaptive e-learning system is buzzword among contemporary research scholars in the area of Educational Data Mining (EDM). Enabling personalized systems is meant for improvement in learning experience for learners as per their choices made or auto-detected needs. It helps in enhancing their performance in terms of knowledge, skills, aptitudes and preferences. It also enables speeding up the learning process qualitatively and quantitatively. These objectives are met only by the Personalized Adaptive E-learning Systems in this regard. Many noble frameworks were conceptualized, designed and developed to infer learning style preferences, and accordingly, learning materials were delivered adaptively to the learners. Designing frameworks help to measure learners’ preferences minutely and provide adaptive learning materials to them in a way most appropriately.

This book reviews the latest techniques in exploratory data mining (EDM) for the analysis of data in the social and behavioral sciences to help researchers assess the predictive value of different combinations of variables in large data sets. Methodological findings and conceptual models that explain reliable EDM techniques for predicting and understanding various risk mechanisms are integrated throughout. Numerous examples illustrate the use of these techniques in practice. Contributors provide insight through hands-on experiences with their own use of EDM techniques in various settings. Readers are also introduced to the most popular EDM software programs. A related website at http://mephisto.unige.ch/pub/edm-book-supplement/offers color versions of the book’s figures, a supplemental paper to chapter 3, and R commands for some chapters. The results of EDM analyses can be perilous – they are often taken as predictions with little regard for cross-validating the results. This carelessness can be catastrophic in terms of money lost or patients misdiagnosed. This book addresses these concerns and advocates for the development of checks and balances for EDM analyses. Both the promises and the perils of EDM are addressed. Editors McArdle and Ritschard taught the "Exploratory Data Mining" Advanced Training Institute of the American Psychological Association (APA). All contributors are top researchers from the US and Europe. Organized into two parts--methodology and applications, the techniques covered include decision, regression, and SEM tree models, growth mixture modeling, and time based categorical sequential analysis. Some of the applications of EDM (and the corresponding data) explored include: selection to college based on risky prior academic profiles the decline of cognitive abilities in older persons global perceptions of stress in adulthood predicting mortality from demographics and cognitive abilities risk factors during pregnancy and the impact on neonatal development Intended as a reference for researchers, methodologists, and advanced students in the social and behavioral sciences including psychology, sociology, business, econometrics, and medicine, interested in learning to apply the latest exploratory data mining techniques. Prerequisites include a basic class in statistics.
