New York, New York, USA, June 27, 2024 — AT-Newswire.com / TopTechTidbits.com — The purpose of Artificial Intelligence Appreciation Day is for the community to celebrate the positive achievements of AI technology and try to start a dialogue about the subject itself. One business owner has found a way to mesh human and machine intelligence to help students excel with their writing. Dr. Emily Levy, along with her daughter Sophie, put their heads and hearts together to create a new software program called Writing Mastery, that strengthens students” writing skills while using artificial intelligence to score their writing and give direct feedback for improvement.
“Writing Mastery combines the best of human insight and artificial intelligence to provide students with the targeted feedback they need to become confident, skilled writers.”
Research tells us that roughly 75% of students struggle with writing. Historically, scoring writing and providing feedback to students has always been subjective. The Writing Mastery software program streamlines the teaching and scoring of writing, helping students to drastically improve their writing skills. Using this program, students start by taking a baseline assessment. They are directed to start with either sentence structure, simple paragraphs, extended paragraphs, or five paragraph essays, where they learn how to write in a systematic manner. Artificial Intelligence is then used to score the student”s writing on a scale of 1-10 stars and gives them direct feedback on how to improve their writing. The program also maintains student writing portfolios to monitor growth. This program is revolutionizing the teaching of writing.
