Abstract:
Educational process mining is an emerging field in the educational data mining discipline, concerned with discovering, analyzing, and improving educational processes as a whole, based on information hidden in educational datasets and event logs. In this paper, we demonstrate the applicability of process mining techniques, implemented in the ProM framework, to monitor and analyze educational processes in the field of professional trainings. Furthermore, we extended the discovered training processes with performance characteristics and decision rules using performance and decision mining techniques.
