Abstract:
This paper explains the usage of Twitter data in a number of subjects on higher education institutions. It examines procedures for defining the interactions between students and professors through social networks, in order to develop more effective teaching. Describing in detail, the way in which Big data technology such as “IBM InfoSphere BigInsights” allows processing of the data, which are primarily downloaded from social networks and later organized in Hadoop environment. For those purposes we have designed an application for creating data file based on the search query. Evaluation through analysis of exam results confirms that the proposed solution produces better results in terms of student’s academic achievements. Students are encouraged to achieve better results, which allows better cooperation in communication of all participants in the educational process.
