Abstract
The main tasks (classification and regression, association rules, clustering) and the basic principles of the Data Mining algorithms in the context of their use for a variety of research in the field of education which are the subject of a relatively new independent direction Educational Data Mining are considered. The findings about the most popular topics of research within this area as well as the perspectives of its development are presented. Presentation of the material is illustrated by simple examples. This article is intended for readers who are engaged in research in the field of education at various levels, especially those involved in the use of e-learning systems, but little familiar with this area of data analysis.References
