Research Abstract

The present study constructed a learner corpus by collecting linguistic data generated in learners' writing, pronunciation, reading comprehension, and listening comprehension. This learner corpus was subsequently used for developing automatic evaluation methods for learners' linguistic skills of writing, pronunciation, reading comprehension and listening comprehension. In addition, automatic evaluationmethods were developed to measure the difficulty of sentences for each linguistic skill. Experimental results for the validation of these automatic evaluation methods showed the efficacy of our learner corpus and automatic evaluation methods for multiple linguistic skills.
