Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has emerged as a significant technology across various industries, including the field of education. Educators face a substantial workload that hinders their ability to effectively develop students. To address this issue, the implementation of RPA can be considered to alleviate the burden on teachers. Acceptance Test-Driven Development (ATDD) is a collaborative methodology involving stakeholders, developers, and testers, ensuring software adherence to desired requirements. By integrating ATDD with RPA, teaching processes can be streamlined, repetitive tasks automated, and overall workload reduced. Consequently, instructors can dedicate more time to critical aspects of their roles. The RPA development process can be guided by the six phases of the RPA Life Cycle. During the discovery phase, an evaluation report, specifically the Forrester Wave (TM), identified UiPath as the optimal tool. Its features aligned well with the requirements of the teaching support process. Furthermore, a combination of the RPA position strategy, group interviews, and online questionnaires involving lecturers from the Faculty of Informatics at Burapha University guided the word validation process for the RPA application. The design phase followed a structured flow to produce the automated application. The results demonstrated a 71.42-fold reduction in time spent on checking word errors in student project reports and communication between teachers and students. This successful integration of RPA in the education sector showcases its potential for enhancing instructional efficiency and student development.
