Data mining (DM) is the process to discover different patterns, co-relations and anomalies among large datasets to estimate future outcomes. While usage of tools and techniques of data mining to extract knowledge automatically from huge database generated by or related to student's learning and educating activities from educational environment is called Educational data mining (EDM). EDM is very useful in education system particularly when examining students’ learning performances. It analyzes education related data to design models to improve student’ learning experiences and enhance effectiveness of institution. Hence, EDM can aid educational institutions to offer high quality education for its learners. This research paper focuses on data mining techniques which can be used to improve education.
