Abstract

With the advancement of technology learning process have been more reachable and interactive like never before. Till the date many online learning platforms have been introduced. The platforms with constant improvisation in teaching-learning technique have been able to sustain. For improvisation there need constant analysis of the data and implement the suggested changes are required. The analysis of the educational data is using data mining techniques is called Educational data mining. EDM helps to discover the patterns of learning behavior hidden in the data sets. This research paper aimed to do a review of different other papers which were based on EDM in online learning environment. It has been seen that most paper used classification and clustering as their data mining technique. K-means clustering has been used as cluster analysis technique for exploring the dataset. Similarly, Weka tools had been found to be used as data mining software. Future recommendations in EDM are presented in terms of future scope of the researches related to it to make the researches more trustworthy.
