Research Aim
• To investigate
• Whether or not computational techniques can automatically
identify attributes of good scholarly writing
• What is the potential of these techniques for student essay
analysis?
• How we can best feedback the results of such analysis in a way
that learners can value to improve the quality of their writing.
• How educators can use these results for automatic or semi-
automatic assessment of their students writing.

Good Scholarly Writing?
Quality of Writing?
• Signalled by the use of
metadiscourse markers in
the text.
• Metadiscourse:
• Linguistic cues in the text
• Expresses a viewpoint, the problem, claim, argument, the
evidence and the implications
• Engages the readers, and signals the writer's stance.
Italicised words are example metadiscourse markers

Original Contribution of PhD
• Carrying XIP into the education field
• For professional scientific articles written by experienced
researchers
• But now for analysis of student essays
• Hypothesis: An outcome of the XIP processed scientific
documents can demonstrate the quality of the author’s written
discourse; and therefore can be used to scaffold and assess
scholarly writing.
• First in depth opportunity to
• Assess a state of the art language technology
• Integrate its services into software tools for academic writing

Research Questions
• Main Research Question
• How can we support students’ scholarly writing skills to improve the
quality of their writing through automated metadiscourse analysis?
• Sub-Question 1
• How reliable and sufficient are the automated discourse analysis tools
for finding good attributes of scholarly writing within student essays?
• Sub-Question 2
• To what extent is there a relation between the existences of various
kinds of argumentative discourse moves in student essays with final
grades?
• Sub-Question 3
• To what extent automated metadiscourse analysis of discipline-
independent student essays can be used to provide formative feedback?

  • 2. Research Aim • To investigate • Whether or not computational techniques can automatically identify attributes of good scholarly writing • What is the potential of these techniques for student essay analysis? • How we can best feedback the results of such analysis in a way that learners can value to improve the quality of their writing. • How educators can use these results for automatic or semi- automatic assessment of their students writing. 10/09/2013,Tuesday,TheOpen University MiniVivaPresentation
  • 3. Good Scholarly Writing? Quality of Writing? • Signalled by the use of metadiscourse markers in the text. • Metadiscourse: • Linguistic cues in the text • Expresses a viewpoint, the problem, claim, argument, the evidence and the implications • Engages the readers, and signals the writer's stance. Italicised words are example metadiscourse markers 10/09/2013,Tuesday,TheOpen University MiniVivaPresentation
  • 4. Xerox Incremental Parser (XIP) • Automatic processing of scientific documents • Recognition of the rhetorically significant sentences • 8 categories of Rhetorical Moves • Background Knowledge • Summarising • Tendency • Novelty • Significance • Surprise • Open Question • Contrasting Ideas 10/09/2013,Tuesday,TheOpen University MiniVivaPresentation
  • 5. Xerox Incremental Parser (XIP) 10/09/2013,Tuesday,TheOpen University MiniVivaPresentation
  • 6. Original Contribution of PhD • Carrying XIP into the education field • For professional scientific articles written by experienced researchers • But now for analysis of student essays • Hypothesis: An outcome of the XIP processed scientific documents can demonstrate the quality of the author’s written discourse; and therefore can be used to scaffold and assess scholarly writing. • First in depth opportunity to • Assess a state of the art language technology • Integrate its services into software tools for academic writing 10/09/2013,Tuesday,TheOpen University MiniVivaPresentation
  • 7. Research Questions • Main Research Question • How can we support students’ scholarly writing skills to improve the quality of their writing through automated metadiscourse analysis? • Sub-Question 1 • How reliable and sufficient are the automated discourse analysis tools for finding good attributes of scholarly writing within student essays? • Sub-Question 2 • To what extent is there a relation between the existences of various kinds of argumentative discourse moves in student essays with final grades? • Sub-Question 3 • To what extent automated metadiscourse analysis of discipline- independent student essays can be used to provide formative feedback? 10/09/2013,Tuesday,TheOpen University MiniVivaPresentation
