Abstract: 
This paper uses the log data in Moodle system to predict students' learning performance at the early stage of a semester. Since the data quality has great influence on the prediction accuracy, the Normal transformation and the Z transformation are utilized in the preprocessing phase. Then, the Fuzzy Rule- Based Classification System (FRBCS) is employed to create prediction model. The experiment results illustrate that data with Normal distribution can offer the higher prediction accuracy than other methods.
