Abstract

This research uses social network connections and academic data to create a recommender system that helps students choose seminars and events that suit their interests. The aim is to address the issue of students' hesitation in selecting activities. This project investigates the use of social network analysis (SNA) to provide individualized suggestions by analyzing student involvement in workshops and events, as well as their grade point average (GPA). The materials contain student data gathered between 2018 and 2023 from Institut Sains dan Teknologi Terpadu Surabaya (ISTTS), emphasizing the student's social media interactions and event participation. Metrics like centrality are employed to identify prominent nodes inside the network, and the approach combines graph-based SNA and cosine similarity for event recommendation. The network of student involvement in events was represented by a dataset comprising 2,293 edges and 602 nodes. The results show that the relevance of recommendations is improved when social network data is integrated with GPA, rather than GPA-based systems alone. The system identified key nodes, such as specific lectures, that significantly impacted student involvement and were rated highly in terms of centrality. Future research implications recommend expanding the dataset to encompass a broader range of events and refining the algorithm by including content-based filtering. The system's application is not limited to educational environments; it may also be tailored for career counselling or professional development.
