Abstract:
Living in an Information Age we have witnessed the continuous evolvement of World
Wide Web throughout the past years. The availability of increasing amounts of electronic
information resources has influenced the field of education and hence has made the
current student learning system more interactive, effective and efficient. But this has
ultimately led to the problem of information overload where students cannot process the
growing loads of learning material they receive in different formats, and face problems in
keeping up with their busy schedules at the same time. Due to this and poor time
management skills the modern-day students are burdened with a strict schedule to manage
both their academic and non-academic activities. In order to solve this problem a smart
learning system is suggested which uses a novel approach in Automatic Text
Summarization and Automatic Question Generation. Sentence simplification, a common
approach for both of the above research areas is identified for this. The problem is
addressed to schooling students following the subject History.
With the evaluation of evaluators from various domains and the test results gained from a
thorough testing criteria it has been attested that the project has been carried out in a
comprehensive and efficient manner meeting the desired levels of expectations.
