Education is one aspect of life that should be owned by every human being. The most crucial times for education is during school. During school, students will start from kindergarten until finally graduating at the high school level. One aspect that is highly considered during school is the level of intelligence. Intelligence levels are often associated with IQ levels. According to research, a person's IQ level becomes a benchmark on the level of intelligence of that person. The level of intelligence can affect the lives of students in receiving lessons so well that the school should properly classify students. Grouping students based on IQ level aims that students can receive more appropriate and effective learning methods so that students can receive lessons well. At Yos Sudarso Highschool at Batam, there are a lot of students who enroll and grouping students will take a lot of time and is not efficient if done manually. Grouping students can be done quickly and precisely by utilizing data mining. One method in data mining is clustering by using K-means. The stages of this method begin with random selection K, K here is the number of clusters that you want to form. Then set K values randomly, while the value becomes the center of the cluster or commonly referred to as centroid, mean or "means". Calculating the distance of each existing data on each centroid using the Euclidian formula to find the closest distance from each data with the centroid after the manual calculation is run on the data mining software, RapidMiner. The use of the K-means method for grouping is one of the right methods when viewed from the variables to be used, namely the value of the student's IQ level. This ¬K-means method will form clusters that classify students based on IQ levels. By applying data mining clustering with the K-means method it is hoped that it can help the school in classifying students appropriately so as to facilitate the school in ensuring students get the right learning method.
