Abstract

The use of a learning management system (LMS) is one of the media that can be used to disseminate lecturer materials to students. Materials that can be uploaded on the LMS can be in the form of lecture materials in the form of files, videos, or questions.  The effectiveness of LMS can be evaluated by looking at activities in using LMS. The effectiveness of using LMS can be seen from the log.  Log results from LMS can be evaluated in various ways and one way is to use data mining clustering models. The clustering model can be used to create student groupings and the clustering results can be labeled in the form of categories, such as very good, good, and bad categories. This labeling depends on the clustering results that will be processed in the modeling. The research method uses CRISP DM which consists of business understanding, data understanding, data preparation, modeling, evaluation, and deployment. The beginning of the research process is carried out by taking log data in the Moodle LMS. The clustering model in this research will use the K-Means algorithm and the evaluation of clustering results will be evaluated for performance using the Davies-Bouldin method. Implementation of data mining processing using Rapid Miner application. The datasheet used is a datasheet taken from the LMS log of the Computer Programming course in the Mechanical Engineering study program - AKPRIND Institute of Science & Technology Yogyakarta odd semester of the 2021/2022 and 2022/2023 academic years.  The results of the study resulted in the best clustering based on the Davies Bouldin method of 2. The clustering results, cluster 0 consists of 28 data named the category of frequent access to LMS and cluster 1 consists of 54 with the category of not frequent access to LMS.
