Abstract: The current worldwide pandemic has significantly increased the need for online learning platforms, hence presenting difficulty in choosing appropriate course materials from the vast online educational resources due to user knowledge frameworks variations. This paper presents a novel course recommendation system called the Deep Learning-based Course Recommendation System (DLCRS). The DLCRS combines a hybrid Sequential GRU+adam optimizer with collaborative filtering techniques to offer accurate and learner-centric course suggestions. The proposed approach integrates modules for learner feature extraction and course feature extraction that is performed using (Embeddings from Language Models) ELMO word embedding technique in order to gain a thorough understanding of learner and course profiles and feedback. In order to evaluate the efficacy of the proposed DLCRS, several extensive experiments were carried out utilizing authentic datasets sourced from a reputable public organization. The results indicate a notable area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) score of 89.62%, which exceeds the performance of similar advanced course recommendation systems. The experimental findings support the viability of the DLCRS, as seen by a significant hit ratio of 0.88, indicating high accuracy in its suggestions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
