Web-based learning is being recognized as a new approach by more and more people, online learning has its unique advantages and development potential. It has four elements-learner, teacher, network course and learning environment, each factor and the relationship between them will affect the effectiveness of learning,with its increasing popularity, focus on the effectiveness of learning is particularly important. This issue is currently more carried out by speculative research, this study intends to do empirical research and apply data mining technology. Data mining is an important branch of computer intelligence science research, and becoming a hot area of research in recent years, it is a key step in knowledge discovery, which can obtain valid information from the data. The application of data mining techniques in web-based learning can effectively explore the learning mechanism, and provide services to learners, teachers, curriculum developers and managers in the net environment, thus guiding them teaching and learning practices, in order to improve online teaching management and learning performance.This study takes "modern educational technology" network course, selects 2007 master and educational postgraduate as the research object of ShannXi Normal University for example, from the perspective of the learner, learning behavior of learner as a starting point, analyze the effectiveness from multiple perspective. The study use database design tool PowerDesigner sort and select information, including the database of learners record information, curriculum and resource information, learning behavior information, and a variety of interactive information, and analyze relevant data and the logical relationship between the data. With Visio. Excel Chart and Sql Server ReportBuilder achieve data collation and analysis. Using SQL Server 2008 Analysis complete data mining, and show visualizationally mining results.Paper is divided into four parts:Part 1:Theoretical analysis and concept definitionMainly analyzes the background and significance of application data mining in web-based learning, analyzes research content and purpose, reviews the study status in detail, defines the relevant concepts, describes the theoretical basis and methods used. introduces data mining concepts, methods, functions, data mining process model, data mining tools with comparison and selection and other aspects of data mining in detail.PartⅡ:System, elements of the relationship introductionIntroduces the application status, the relationship between the various elements, of "Modern Educational Technology" net course system of Shaanxi Normal University, analyzes data tables relate with learning behaviors, and the relationship between various data tables in the database. PartⅢ:Application of data mining to analyze the effective learning mechanism of e-learningFirst. carries out data mining problems definition, data collection, the data pre-processing and standardized, applies classification algorithm, clustering algorithm and association rule algorithms to establish application model. Decision tree analysis method is used to analyze group learning differences, evaluate and interpret results of excavation, analyze the causes of the differences from learner-related factors. Then use cluster analysis to analyze behavior characteristics of the learners, and finally analyzes the relationship between learning behavior and learning effectiveness with association rule method, on this basis, explores the differences of web-based learning and affecting factors of learning effectiveness, predicts the behavior of effective learning. The results show that the learning attitude and habit is the most critical factor affecting learning effectiveness, the effective behavior in web-based learning environment includes moderate learning time span, more log and learning number, moderate learning frequency, often writing study notes, regularly reviewing, and actively participate in various interactive activities.PartⅣ:Building mechanism for web-based learning behavior and making recommendationsEnhances the conclusions of the study. according to metcognitive theory, from the perspective of the process theory, combined with information processing point.builds mechanism for web-based learning behavior, and makes feasible recommendations separately from the learners, teachers, administrators and curriculum developers. The application of data mining in the research of Web-based learning mechanism is the breakthrough to the research of the effectiveness of web-based learning.
