Educational Data Mining (EDM) has emerged as a vital field of research, which
harnesses the power of computational techniques to analyze educational data.
With the increasing complexity and diversity of educational data, Deep Learning
techniques have shown significant advantages in addressing the challenges
associated with analyzing and modeling this data. This survey aims to
systematically review the state-of-the-art in EDM with Deep Learning. We begin
by providing a brief introduction to EDM and Deep Learning, highlighting their
relevance in the context of modern education. Next, we present a detailed
review of Deep Learning techniques applied in four typical educational
scenarios, including knowledge tracing, undesirable student detecting,
performance prediction, and personalized recommendation. Furthermore, a
comprehensive overview of public datasets and processing tools for EDM is
provided. Finally, we point out emerging trends and future directions in this
research area.Comment: 21 pages, 5 figure
