    A group of Chicago youth media organizations have embarked on an evaluation process with adult program alumni to assess the degree to which hands-on media production and dissemination contributes to developing productive, independent, and engaged citizens. This report sets the stage for the evaluation, which began in late 2012 and will run through 2013, highlighting the work of youth media organizations in Chicago and exploring six dimensions, or outcome areas, that youth media organizations work within: journalism skills, news/media literacy, civic engagement, career development, youth development, and youth expression

    A Survey of Sentiment Analysis and Sarcasm Detection: Challenges, Techniques, and Trends

    Get PDF
    In recent years, more people have been using the internet and social media to express their opinions on various subjects, such as institutions, services, or specific ideas. This increase highlights the importance of developing automated tools for accurate sentiment analysis. Moreover, addressing sarcasm in text is crucial, as it can significantly impact the efficacy of sentiment analysis models. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the conducted research on sentiment analysis and sarcasm detection, focusing on the time from 2018 to 2023. It explores the challenges faced and the methods used to address them. It conducts a comparison of these methods. It also aims to identify emerging trends that will likely influence the future of sentiment analysis and sarcasm detection, ensuring their continued effectiveness. This paper enhances the existing knowledge by offering a comprehensive analysis of 40 research works, evaluating performance, addressing multilingual challenges, and highlighting future trends in sarcasm detection and sentiment analysis. It is a valuable resource for researchers and experts interested in the field, facilitating further advancements in sentiment analysis techniques and applications. It categorizes sentiment analysis methods into ML, lexical, and hybrid approaches, highlighting deep learning, especially Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), for effective textual classification with labeled or unlabeled data

    An Efficient Probabilistic Deep Learning Model for the Oral Proficiency Assessment of Student Speech Recognition and Classification

    Natural Language Processing is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) that focuses on the interaction between computers and human language. Speech recognition systems utilize machine learning algorithms and statistical models to analyze acoustic features of speech, such as pitch, duration, and frequency, to convert spoken words into written text. The Student English Oral Proficiency Assessment and Feedback System provides students with a comprehensive evaluation of their spoken English skills and offers tailored feedback to help them improve. It can be used in language learning institutions, universities, or online platforms to support language education and enhance oral communication abilities. In this paper constructed a framework stated as Latent Dirichlet Integrated Deep Learning (LDiDL) for the assessment of student English proficiency assessment. The system begins by collecting a comprehensive dataset of spoken English samples, encompassing various proficiency levels. Relevant features are extracted from the samples, including acoustic characteristics and linguistic attributes. Leveraging Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA), the system uncovers latent topics within the data, enabling a deeper understanding of the underlying themes present in the spoken English. To further enhance the analysis, a deep learning model is developed, integrating the LDA topics with the extracted features. This model is trained using appropriate techniques and evaluated using performance metrics. Utilizing the predictions made by the model, the system generates personalized feedback for each student, focusing on areas of improvement such as vocabulary, grammar, fluency, and pronunciation. Simulation mode uses the native English speech audio for the LDiDL training and classification. The experimental analysis stated that the proposed LDiDL model achieves an accuracy of 99% for the assessment of English Proficiency

    NLPContributions: An Annotation Scheme for Machine Reading of Scholarly Contributions in Natural Language Processing Literature

    We describe an annotation initiative to capture the scholarly contributions in natural language processing (NLP) articles, particularly, for the articles that discuss machine learning (ML) approaches for various information extraction tasks. We develop the annotation task based on a pilot annotation exercise on 50 NLP-ML scholarly articles presenting contributions to five information extraction tasks 1. machine translation, 2. named entity recognition, 3. question answering, 4. relation classification, and 5. text classification. In this article, we describe the outcomes of this pilot annotation phase. Through the exercise we have obtained an annotation methodology; and found ten core information units that reflect the contribution of the NLP-ML scholarly investigations. The resulting annotation scheme we developed based on these information units is called NLPContributions. The overarching goal of our endeavor is four-fold: 1) to find a systematic set of patterns of subject-predicate-object statements for the semantic structuring of scholarly contributions that are more or less generically applicable for NLP-ML research articles; 2) to apply the discovered patterns in the creation of a larger annotated dataset for training machine readers of research contributions; 3) to ingest the dataset into the Open Research Knowledge Graph (ORKG) infrastructure as a showcase for creating user-friendly state-of-the-art overviews; 4) to integrate the machine readers into the ORKG to assist users in the manual curation of their respective article contributions. We envision that the NLPContributions methodology engenders a wider discussion on the topic toward its further refinement and development. Our pilot annotated dataset of 50 NLP-ML scholarly articles according to the NLPContributions scheme is openly available to the research community at https://doi.org/10.25835/0019761.Comment: In Proceedings of the 1st Workshop on Extraction and Evaluation of Knowledge Entities from Scientific Documents (EEKE 2020) co-located with the ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries in 2020 (JCDL 2020), Virtual Event, China, August 1. http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2658

    Intelligent English Teaching Based on the Pedagogy of Performing Another Culture and ChatGPT Technology

    Get PDF
    In the background of digital education, the intelligent capabilities of ChatGPT-based technology in teaching have emerged as a powerful tool for facilitating teachers’ preparation for lesson, improving students’ learning motivation and effectiveness, and promoting the development of intelligent curriculum. This study put forward a novel model of ChatGPT-based English teaching grounded in the “Pedagogy of Performing Another Culture” proposed by Galal Walker. From the three aspects of teaching design, application scenarios, and learning effect evaluation, this model explores the application of ChatGPT in the four fundamental language domains of listening, speaking, reading, and writing, with the objective of enhancing students’ language proficiency and cultural sensitivity, while also fostering their digital learning capabilities. To uphold academic integrity and ethical use of ChatGPT in English teaching, a C++-based ChatGPT application has been designed and tailored to the specific needs of English language learners. The school-based intelligent courses based on ChatGPT are available for students to carry out more diverse and effective English learning, promoting the rational use of ChatGPT in learning
