    When we look at the field of education, the concept of educational data mining, which comes to the fore with the use of data mining techniques and learning analytics in the field of education, draws attention. With the big data analyzes to be made on the elements in the field of education (student, teacher, course/course), an increase in the quality of education can be achieved. However, when applied together with online course management systems (such as Moodle), it can fulfill many functions such as providing motivation for students, increasing success and communicating when needed.

    Researchers interested in educational data mining aim to obtain detailed information about students' knowledge, motivation, metacognition and attitudes and to predict students' future learning by creating unified student models; exploring or developing domain models that describe learned content and optimal instructional sequences; has been working on educational data mining to achieve many purposes, such as studying the impact of different types of pedagogical support provided by learning software.

Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that exactly overlays computer generated virtual imagery on physical objects in real time. It is different from virtual reality (VR), where the user is completely immersed in a virtual environment. AR lets the user to interact with the virtual images using real objects in a seamlessly.

Data Governance in E-Learning

Data governance (DG) is the process of managing the availability, usability, integrity and security of data in business processes, based on internal data standards and policies that also govern data usage. Effective data governance ensures that data is consistent and reliable and is not misused. It is becoming increasingly critical as organizations deal with new data privacy laws and rely heavily on data analysis to help improve operations and drive business decisions. A well-designed data governance system usually consists of a management team, a steering committee acting as the governing body, and a data governance team. They work together to create data governance standards and policies, as well as the implementation and enforcement processes carried out primarily by data managers. Managers and other representatives from the organization’s business operations are involved, in addition to IT and data governance teams. While data governance is an integral part of the overall data gove...
