Abstract

This paper proposes a novel approach to enhancing education systems by integrating federated learning techniques with big data analytics. Traditional data analysis methods in educational settings often need help regarding data privacy, security, and scalability. Federated learning addresses these issues by enabling collaborative model training across distributed datasets without data centralization, thus preserving the privacy of sensitive information. By harnessing the vast amounts of educational data generated from various sources such as online learning platforms, student information systems, and academic applications, federated learning empowers educational institutions to derive valuable insights while respecting data privacy regulations. Leveraging the collective intelligence of decentralized data sources, federated learning algorithms facilitate the development of robust predictive models for student performance, personalized learning recommendations, and early intervention strategies. Moreover, federated learning enables continuous model improvement by aggregating local model updates from participating institutions, ensuring adaptability to evolving educational landscapes. This paper explores the technical foundations of federated learning, its application in education systems, and its potential benefits in improving learning outcomes and fostering data-driven decision-making in education. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature and case studies, this research aims to provide insights into the opportunities and challenges associated with implementing federated learning-based big data analytics in education systems, ultimately paving the way for a more efficient and personalized approach to education.
