Abstract
This study aims to optimize the use of technology in evaluating student performance by grouping students based on their abilities. The main issues include the underutilization of technology, the absence of an appropriate evaluation system for different levels of student ability, and ineffective methods for grouping students. The K-Means Clustering algorithm was chosen because it has proven effective in grouping academic data in various studies. The data used includes Daily Knowledge Scores (DKS), Daily skill scores (DSS), Mid-term Summative Scores (MSS), End-of-Year Summative Scores (ESS), and Grade Report (GR). The data was analyzed using the CRISP-DM methodology with the help of RapidMiner. The results showed that 28.63% of students were classified as having excellent performance, 50.21% as having good performance, and 21.16% as having moderate performance. The Davies-Bouldin Index score of 1.713 for K=3 was considered sufficient for distinguishing the different student performance groups. The results of this study are expected to help schools provide learning support that better aligns with student needs. Future research is recommended to focus on optimizing the number of clusters (K), applying this method to other subjects, and integrating it with e-learning platforms for real-time student performance monitoring.
