説明

Teaching writing is a fundamental part of teaching English, but it is problematic for teachers in several ways. Providing feedback to each student is time-consuming, being consistent with feedback is challenging, and knowing what level of feedback to give takes time to learn. This study aims to evalu ate the effectiveness of Write & Improve, an automatic writing evaluation tool developed by Cambridge English. Participants were asked to work through tasks at their own pace. The participants found Write & Improve easy to use, but also frustrating when they felt that the program did not provide them with enough support. The tool also offered consistent feedback at an appropriate level for participants, focusing on basic language features first. Overall, participants found Write & Improve fun to use, but many had reservations about how effective it was for long-term learning. However, with development, the tool could greatly benefit teachers and learners alike.
