Contextual Aspects of Text Organization, 2013

Much effort has been invested in automatic correction of writing mistakes, but less in investigating the work flow of the writing process. The project aims at investigating the work flow of writers in two different groups: ordinary writers with no known reading or writing disabilities and known dyslectics. We need information about the writing process, for use in automatic correction. The aim of the project is to f ind factors that aid, support and stimulate text production in disadvantaged groups. It is also important that we know more about normal text production. The ultimate aim is to provide information through careful investigation so that word processors can adapt to the needs of the users. We think that users, especially in the disadvantaged groups, will benefit from both positive and negative feedback. The main question in this project is when to present feedback in an optimal way so that the writing process is not disturbed.
