Education 4.0 using artificial intelligence for students performance analysis

“…Data Mining methods analyses datasets and collect information to turn them into understandable structures for subsequent use. Machine Learning (ML), Collaborative Filtering (CF), Recommending Systems (RS), and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) are the essential computational techniques that process this knowledge to predict the performance of the students, their grades, or the risk of dropping out [10][11][12].…”

The Effectiveness of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) Model on the Creative Thinking Skill of Students in the Human Respiration System

“…Education in the 21st century educators are required to empower higher order thinking skills and see all problems from various perspectives so that they can solve problems more efficiently (Anwar et al, 2020).
