  • The current education is becoming more extensive with the application of various teaching methods. This is a problem that is so distributed that it is difficult for users to find the data and it takes a long time to find the information they need. Currently, various educational services, materials, and instruments are developed and scattered. Therefore, it is important to raise students' awareness of aptitude and career path with customized education tailored to students. Conventional education platforms have very difficult to choose the right materials for students because of the spread of educational programs and institution materials. To solve this, we propose a customized recommendation approach to recommend customized educational service materials and institution for students to teachers, which helps teachers conveniently choose materials suitable for their respective environments. On this new platform, the CNN algorithm provides recommended content for classes and students. For real service on the educational service platform, we implement this system for Jeil edus business. Through this mechanism, we expect to improve the quality of education by helping to select the right service.
