Proactive Listening to Student Voices: Automating Reddit Summaries for Education Leaders
Abstract
Reddit has become a space for informal student discourse where computer science students share experiences, seek advice, compare courses, and express frustrations. These conversations can provide valuable insights into the student experience and help faculty education leadership proactively identify recurring concerns rather than reacting to isolated complaints. The challenge is that the sheer volume and informality of posts make it difficult to identify patterns and themes.
