Abstract

This study explored the applications of natural language processing techniques on the analysis of storybook to design the storytelling chatbots. Two natural language processing techniques, co-reference and dependency parsing techniques, were applied to process the text of 157 stories books as a means to implement in the invite-narration, positive recognition, follow-up strategies when the chatbot retells the story with the students. The results of the study found that 19 (42%) students demonstrated full narratives which can re-tell the overall story in the storybook, while 22 (49%) students could only retell a simplified story. Affordances and limitations of the use of the two techniques in developing chatbots for reading are discussed.
