To understand both writing processes and writing interventions, as well as writing interventions themselves, it is sometimes necessary to assess text quality. However, the idea of 'text quality' is commonly misunderstood or misunderstood. A more precise understanding and explanation of what it means to be a good writer is the purpose of this book, according to the editors. Chapters in the book are broken down into the following categories: definitions of writing skill, rater effects, and automated essay scoring, to name a few.
