Clustering analysis of learning style on anggana high school student

Abstract

The inability of students to absorb the knowledge conveyed by the teacher is’nt caused by the inability of understanding and by the teacher which isn’t able to teach too, but because of the mismatch of learning styles between students and teachers, so that students feel uncomfortable in learning to a particular teacher. It also happens in senior high school (SHS/SMAN) 1 Anggana, so it is necessary to do this research, to analyze cluster (group) of student learning style by applying data mining method that is k-Means and Fuzzy C-Means. The purpose was to know the effectiveness of this learning style cluster on the development of absorptive power and improving student achievement. The method used to cluster the learning style with data mining process starts from the data cleaning stage, data selection, data transformation, data mining, pattern evolution, and knowledge development.
