Best practices help to make the business processes smooth. As best practices are always recommended and not forced, the authors have recommended few best practices to be followed in Educational institutes so that the activities related to educational data mining becomes easy to implement. The best practices suggested are with the objective to gain and maintain data quality; as quality data leads to correct analysis.

Abstract


Best practices help to make the business processes smooth. As best practices are always recommended and not forced, the authors have recommended few best practices to be followed in Educational institutes so that the activities related to educational data mining becomes easy to implement. The best practices suggested are with the objective to gain and maintain data quality; as quality data leads to correct analysis.
