Project Assignment Based on the Analysis of Emotional and Social Relationships Between Learners in an Educational Social Network

With the increase of distance learning, in general, and e-learning, in particular, having a system capable of analyzing the relationships among students is a primordial importanc. This relationship is defined based on the communications between the different system users. social networks serve as an ideal option for analyzing relationships due to their abundance of user interaction data. This data can be used to identify different types of relationships, such as friendship, collaboration, and mentorship. In this network, relationships allow information to flow through the network, allowing one individual to influence another. This work allows for the exploitation of social and emotional relationships between learners. Based on this analysis, the K-means algorithm is applied to cluster students into project groups, ensuring a balanced distribution of skills, knowledge levels, and emotional dispositions. This study demonstrates the potential to revolutionize how educators manage collaborative projects and tailor them to learners' individual needs and capabilities.
