ARC Discovery Project

Using machine learning and automated document analysis methods to support English composition training

Prof Peter Reimann, A/Prof Brian Paltridge , Dr Rafael Calvo

This project has been funded by an Australian Research Council Discovery Grant.

The project has the potential to further strengthen Australia's Higher Education industry by providing scalable solutions for teaching academic writing, a core competence for students in the tertiary sector. It is also a contribution to the E-learning industry in general. Innovating with these respective technologies will have a significant impact on the quality of online training. Australian organizations will be able to reap the benefits of a well-tested platform, with the exclusive added capabilities that this project will develop. One of the software systems to be used in this project is an open source Learning Management System that is available to every Australian institution without any licensing cost.
