. present an approach of string comparison with the meaning of the words– semanticsimilarity. The approach uses WordNet R -based Semantic Similarity Measurement (WSSM) asthe database for synonyms. WordNet R is a database of English and an open source project basedat Princeton University. The authors use five steps to compute a semantic similarity for twosentences. The steps are (a) separating sentence into a list of tokens, (b) disambiguatingparts-of-speech, (c) stemming words, (d) finding the most appropriate sense, and (e) computingthe similarity. Although there might be many limitations, the method worked fine for this researchbecause the target learners are supposed to be trained to use terms in their process maps.Our method of comparing
