University Web Syllabus Improvement with ChatGPT

Job ID: 36782720

Budget: $3,000 – $5,000 USD

**Project Overview:**

Our objective is to revamp the current syllabus search system at Waseda University in Japan. The system has remained largely unchanged since 2012, which makes searching for courses a cumbersome process for students. We believe there is significant scope for improvement and optimization, specifically through the implementation of AI technologies like OpenAI's ChatGPT.

**Background:**

As an institution equivalent to the prestige of UCLA in the United States, Waseda University has a strong commitment to providing an effective and efficient learning environment for its students. One of the key aspects of this commitment is facilitating a smooth course selection process. Given the rapid advancements in AI and machine learning, we believe now is the opportune time to utilize these technologies to enhance our existing system.

**Skills and Experience Required:**

The freelancer should have experience with AI technologies, specifically OpenAI's ChatGPT. Understanding of natural language processing (NLP) and its application for text search and information retrieval is crucial. Familiarity with Japanese language and education systems would be advantageous, though not a necessity.

**Schedule:**

We're aiming to have an improved system in place for the next academic year, so we are looking for someone who can start as soon as possible. We are flexible with the timeline and understand that quality work takes time.

**Other Requirements:**

The selected freelancer should be open to regular communication and updates. We'd like to be involved in the process, so regular meetings (via Zoom or other online platforms) would be appreciated. Also, please be aware that our primary language is Japanese, but we will do our best to ensure effective communication in English.

We understand and respect the value of your time and expertise, and are prepared to offer suitable compensation for your involvement in this project.

here's my final ideal scenario for the students:
1. A student enters our website and the chat begins.
2. The conversation with chatgpt would ask the student, "What do you want to learn?" and "What are your interests?" to narrow down which classes would be a match for the student.
3. Ultimately, a few classes suitable for the student would be suggested.
