Popis: Student data play an important role in evaluating the effectiveness of educational programs in the universities. All data are aggregated to calculate the education criteria by year, region, or organization. Remarkably, recent studies showed the data impacts when making exploration to predict student performance objectives. Many methods in terms of data mining were proposed to be suitable to extract useful information in regards to data characteristics. However, the reconciliation between applied methods and data characteristics still exists some challenges. Our paper will demonstrate the analysis of this relationship for a specific dataset in practice. The paper describes a distributed framework based on Spark for extracting information from raw data. Then, we integrate machine learning techniques to train the prediction model. The experiments results are analyzed through different scenarios to show the harmony between the influencing factors and applied techniques.
