Cesar et al. [6] proposed the use of a recommendation system
based on data mining techniques to help students to make
decisions related to their academic track. The system provided
support for students to better choose how many and which
courses to enroll on. As a result, the authors developed a system
that is capable to predict the failure or success of a student in
any course using a classifier obtained from the analysis of a set
of historical data related to the academic field of other students
who took the same course in the past.
