VAN DYK, Tobie; LOUW, Henk; TALJARD, Marlies  y  CLOETE, D.J.. Digital assistance for academic Afrikaans - first lessons from a development project. Literator [online]. 2021, vol.42, n.1, pp.1-14. ISSN 2219-8237.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/lit.v42i1.1758.

This article identifies digital assistance in the development of academic writing skills (specifically in Afrikaans) as a problem that can be partially improved with annotated data from an appropriate corpus. Reference is made to the corpus that ICELDA and SADILAR developed and annotated for informing the development of the software package, Skryfhulp Afrikaans. The emphasis in the article is on the purpose and usefulness of the annotated data within the context of ICELDA and SADILAR's mandates, and the preliminary findings of the first trial run with the data annotation indicating that the project is headed in the right direction, considered from a pedagogical perspective.

Palabras clave : SaMulCat; Academic Literacy; SADiLaR; ICELDA; corpus; annotation; digital assistance, Skryfhulp Afrikaans; writing pedagogy; error analysis; annotation scheme; undergraduate writing.
