Evaluation and Analysis of Grammatical Linguistic Pattern Over Social Science and Technology Textbooks

Every textbook is built upon the foundation of key concepts. Books that contain concepts that share some common properties and are semantically related are more lucid and intelligible than those that contain many unrelated concepts. These key concepts follow a certain widely used grammatical linguistic patterns. An enormous amount of information can be derived regarding these key concepts such as their dispersion across chapters and, the relationship among the concepts, etc. The relationship among key concepts can be used to evaluate the books, and draw concept graphs. Since we live in an increasingly visual society, graphic representation of the key concepts may well help readers in easily understanding textbook content.This paper describes an experiments performed on selected chapters from social science and technology textbooks. The goal of the experiments was to evaluate the effectiveness of the grammatical linguistic pattern in identifying the key concepts in these textbooks and to quantify the suitability of linguistic patterns in different fields.
