Outline of Final Research Achievements

The present study showed that rewriting based on automated feedback would help Japanese learners of English develop their writing proficiency. In the present study, the researcher employed Criterion, developed by Educational Testing Service, in his writing courses and tried to clarify whether it would be an effective tool in teaching essay writing. The results are: (a) Criterion feedback on linguistic forms is reliable and manageable, (b) Criterion feedback on development and organization is likely to be less beneficial for learners of English and (c) Efficient writing instruction would be possible when teachers and Criterion play complementary roles in teaching essay writing.
