Abstract
Automated feedback on writing may be a useful complement to teacher comments in the process of learning a foreign language. This talk presents a self-assessment and tutoring system which combines an holistic score with detection and correction of frequent errors and furthermore provides a qualitative assessment of each individual sentence, thus making the language learner aware of potentially problematic areas rather than providing a panacea. The system has been tested by learners in a range of educational institutions, and their feedback has guided its development.
Series This talk is part of the NLIP Seminar Series series.
