Abstract: We investigate the topic of digital writing support from a technical perspective by focusing on machine-based text processing and implementation of automated feedback. We share observations collected during the development of a module for automated rhetorical unit recognition in theses’ introductions. We demonstrate the limits related to machine-based feedback to students’ writing and discuss potential solutions to overcome them.
Further description: Talk 3 of the Symposium "Promises and pitfalls – how to handle and to use digital technology in academic writing. Three perspectives on digital writing from a Swiss project" (Liana Konstantinidou1, Caroline Lehr1, Alice Delorme Benites1, Sara Cotelli Kureth2, Elizabeth Steele3, Romina Schaub-Torsello1, Curtis Gautschi1, Malgorzata Anna Ulasik1, Maren Runte1, Cerstin Mahlow1, Laura Stahlhut4 —1ZHAW, Switzerland; 2Université de Neuchâtel, Switzerland; 3Berner Fachhochschule; 4Universität Zürich) Abstract: Digital writing in academic contexts is a multi-faceted activity. It requires multiple skills ranging from finding information (in different languages) to reading and processing it to creating the final text product. From this spectrum, the project "Digital Literacy in University Contexts" focuses on two skills. On the one hand, we are interested in the reflective use of machine translation, on the other hand in the use of automated writing evaluation for text optimization. Both skills presuppose that people know the limits of what can be done by machines and use them situationally. Three talks point at this. Conference website: https://eataw23.zhaw.ch
