Abstract

Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) is a type of online course that has been designed and can be accessed by all individuals via the internet. The problem that is often found in MOOCs is the lack of a recommendation system provided by the algorithm of the MOOC. This research is conducted to analyze a recommendation system that applies the Content Based Filtering approach in order to solve the problems that occur. The recommendation system analyzed will function as a media that provides recommendations to users based on their preferences. By utilizing content-based methods, the recommendations given are expected to be exactly what the user wants. The level of explainability of the recommendation system is further emphasized by XAI using ELI5. By getting a concise explanation when a recommendation is given, the system will gain more trust from users for providing an appropriate recommendation. The assessment of the accuracy of the recommendation system model is measured using MAE. By researching this recommendation system using XAI, it is hoped that it can help future systems to improve the quality of the course recommendation system. © 2024 IEEE.
