Abstract—Senior projects allow students to move the
learning process from basic knowledge to an interdisciplinary
approach. The purpose of the research is to survey the attitude
and perception as collaboration between researchers and
students to develop a clustering model for advisors and students,
and to develop factors that are significant to predict the right
match in the senior projects course. Data collection was with a
questionnaire consisting of 463 samples from 7 administrators,
68 lecturers, 26 staff and 362 students from two universities:
The Rajabhat Mahasarakham University, and the University of
Phayao. The research methodology is designed and divided into
three sections: preparation, implementation, and conclusion.
The result shows that the satisfaction and the overall acceptance
level were at a high level (mean = 4.04, S.D. = 0.88). Moreover,
the developed model has the highest level of efficiency (accuracy
= 98.06%). For future research projects, the researchers are
committed on the development of learners’ achievement and
aims to promote a learning culture based on the results of this
research, and active learning of educational institutions.
Index Terms—Educational engineering, educational data
mining, proactive learning culture, lifelong learning, learning
