Conijn, Rianne; Martinez-Maldonado, Roberto; Knight, Simon; Buckingham Shum, Simon; Van Waes, Luuk; van Zaanen, Menno – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2022
Current writing support tools tend to focus on assessing final or intermediate products, rather than the writing process.

However, they are not specifically designed for language learning, and hence not entirely suitable. In this article, I will compare two uses of the Claroline LMS available at Louvain-la-Neuve within the framework…
