Thai NLP-based Text Classification of the 21st-century Skills toward Educational Curriculum and Project Design
Abstract
(4) digital literacy, (5) financial literacy, (6) cultural and civic literacy, (7) critical thinking, (8) creativity, (9) communication, (10) collaboration, (11) curiosity,
(12) initiative, (13) persistence, (14) adaptability, (15) leadership and (16) social and cultural awareness. The learning objectives in a curriculum/course or project designed for university students should be fulfilled in some of the 21-century skills. Based on Natural language processing (NLP), this paper proposed a novel Thai text classification for the 21st-century skills that can be seen as Artificial intelligence (AI) in education. An unknown Thai text based on an objective/purpose of the curriculum is classified as the one of those 16 skills using Long-short-term Memory with Attention (ATTN-LSTM). Each Thai word is input to the ATTN-LSTM as learning parameterization. The proposed ATTN-LSTM provides the accuracy higher than 60%. Also, the ATTN-LSTM improves from baseline LSTM as 10% based on our 7,440 raw Thai texts and the attention score helps the correctness classification.
