Abstract: This study addresses the critical challenge of automatically harvesting high-quality Korean language teaching resources from the open web, where existing methods focus on topical relevance rather than pedagogical suitability. The study proposes a novel quality-aware adaptive crawling and cleansing framework. It integrates a real-time linguistic quality assessment module, powered by universal dependencies parsing, with an adaptive crawling strategy driven by a contextual bandit algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate that quality-aware adaptive crawling and cleansing framework significantly outperforms current state-of-the-art methods. It achieves a high-quality page acquisition rate of 7.47 pages per hour (a 39% improvement), a pedagogical precision of 0.892, and a top-ranking accuracy of 0.915. The framework successfully bridges linguistic theory and web mining, offering an effective solution for building structured, high-quality pedagogical resource repositories.

Keywords: adaptive web crawling; quality assessment; universal dependencies; resource cleansing.
