Automate Knowledge Concept Tagging on Math Questions with LLMs
arxiv(2024)
摘要
Knowledge concept tagging for questions plays a crucial role in contemporary
intelligent educational applications, including learning progress diagnosis,
practice question recommendations, and course content organization.
Traditionally, these annotations have been conducted manually with help from
pedagogical experts, as the task requires not only a strong semantic
understanding of both question stems and knowledge definitions but also deep
insights into connecting question-solving logic with corresponding knowledge
concepts. In this paper, we explore automating the tagging task using Large
Language Models (LLMs), in response to the inability of prior manual methods to
meet the rapidly growing demand for concept tagging in questions posed by
advanced educational applications. Moreover, the zero/few-shot learning
capability of LLMs makes them well-suited for application in educational
scenarios, which often face challenges in collecting large-scale,
expertise-annotated datasets. By conducting extensive experiments with a
variety of representative LLMs, we demonstrate that LLMs are a promising tool
for concept tagging in math questions. Furthermore, through case studies
examining the results from different LLMs, we draw some empirical conclusions
about the key factors for success in applying LLMs to the automatic concept
tagging task.
