Abstract

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a research field that studies how to automatically interpret/generate information in natural language. Currently, the quality and number of developed NLP resources and techniques permit their application to educational systems, with the potential of widening access to training and opening new ways of teaching. In this paper, the benefits of exploiting the current NLP techniques to improve e-learning systems will be discussed. A brief overview of the state-of-the-art of NLP will be provided and, some real e-learning and e-assessment applications based on the use of NLP techniques will be described to illustrate the benefits of using NLP techniques for e-learning.
