Abstract

The purpose of this research is to develop the a data mining model for predicting learning achievement of students based on Blended Learning Instruction. The data that is used to create model was gathered from the learner’s exercise scores throughout semesters. There are 20 variables. The data is separated into 2 sets using the feature selection techniques; 1) Information Gain (IG) and 2) Gain Ration (GR). After the feature selection process, the datais reduced in order to evaluate the predicting model’s performance by using 10-fold Cross Validation. The experimenting results showed that the highest accuracy rate is the K-Nearest Neighbor as 86.13%, the Decision Tree as 81.74%, the Rule Base as 81.67%, and Naïve Bays 55.05%.
