Large volume of educational data has led to more challenging in predicting student’s performance. In Malaysia currently, study about the performance of students in Malaysia institutions is very little being addressed. The previous studies are still insufficient to identify what factors contribute to student’s achievements and lack of investigations on exploring pattern of student’s behaviour that affecting their academic performance within Malaysia context. Therefore, predicting student’s academic performance by using decision trees is proposed to improve student’s achievements more effectively. The main objective of this paper is to provide an overview on predicting student’s academic performance using by using data mining techniques. This paper also focuses on identifying the pattern of student’s behaviour and the most important attributes that impact to the student’s achievement. By using educational data mining techniques, the students, lecturers and academic institution are able to have a better understanding on the student’s achievement.

Data mining is the trending field used to get relevant knowledge from the database given. This technique consists of subfield called educational data mining is the emerging area used to extract the hidden patterns from the huge data with the help of tools techniques developed by the researchers of the educational data mining. The purpose of extracting patterns from the educational database is to improve the quality of education can be provided to the students for their better feature. The patterns are extracted by using the existing data mining techniques to enhance student performance. Educational data mining techniques such as classification, regression, clustering are available in the field. Classification is defined as the technique used to categorize the data based on the given label and constraints. In this paper, the algorithms like naves Bayes, Random Forest and J48 algorithms used to classify the data instances under the given labels using the constraints given., the classification algorithms like naves Bayes shows best performance accuracy with the given student dataset. Clustering and apriori rule have a strong relationship in student performance. In this paper, predictive data mining used to predict the student's performance to enhance the study level of the students in the organization.

In the IT world, predicting the academic performance of the huge student population poses a big challenge. Educational data mining techniques significantly contribute in providing solution to this problem. There are several prediction methods available for data classification and clustering, to extract information and provide accurate results. In this paper, different prediction methodologies are highlighted for the prediction of real-time data analysis of dynamic academic behavior of the students. The main focus is to provide brief knowledge about all data mining techniques and highlight dissimilarities among various methods in order to provide the best results for the students.
