Student performance assessment using clustering techniques
The application of informatics in the university system management
allows managers to count with a great amount of data which, rationally treated,
can offer significant help for the student programming monitoring. This research
proposes the use of clustering techniques as a useful tool of management
strategy to evaluate the progression of the students’ behavior by dividing the
population into homogeneous groups according to their characteristics and
skills. These applications can help both the teacher and the student to improve
the quality of education. The selected method is the data grouping analysis by
means of fuzzy logic using the Fuzzy C-means algorithm to achieve a standard
indicator called Grade, through an expert system to enable segmentation.Universidad de la Costa, 2 Universidad Nacional Experimental Politécnica “Antonio José de Sucre”, Universidad Simón Bolívar, Corporación Universitaria Latinoamericana, Corporación Universitaria Minuto de Dios
