AN APPROACH TO SEMANTIC EDUCATIONAL CONTENT MINING USING NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING (NLP)

The COVID-19 pandemic had caused a significant disruption to the global education system. Many educational institutions faced sudden pressure to switch from face-to-face to online delivery of courses. The conventional classroom setting is no longer the primary means of delivery; instead, online education and resources have become the prominent approach. With the increasing demand for supplementary course materials to fulfill the needs of each area of study, students began to use search engines and online resources that contain discussions, practical demonstrations, and tutorial videos to aid students in their studies and course work. This study addresses the underlying challenges of retrieving relevant online educational materials by introducing an intelligent agent for semantic data mining. It works as middleware infrastructure that allow context-aware data processing and mining. YouTube was used to assess the consistency of the proposed model since it returns a large number of results in its search pool. The results showed that using the extraction of topics method, the similarities scores with the proposed model provided favorable results. Furthermore, an improvement in video ranking and sorting was realized. According to the findings, using this method provided users with a more productive and reliable study experience.
