Abstract


Since the global epidemic of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) over the past few years, Thailand education sector has been affected by the requisites for a digitization system and distance education. This sudden change has affected the quality of learning and statistical evaluation in the long term. Consequently, data analysis and categorization in learning quality assessment are critical for predicting the number of future students and learning performance after the COVID-19 outbreak. However, vast data analytics might be applied to the education sector in many aspects. In addition, machine learning can influence the categorization of students that are useful for analyzing the performance of different educational systems. Therefore, this study reviews the perspective and usability of data analytics and machine learning that influences current situations in Thailand's education sector.
