This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award for $175,000 supports research by Calvin University to develop interactive natural language technology to help writers structure and revise documents. The project, funded under NSF's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070), aims to create features that can be integrated into word processing applications to assist writers in organizing their thoughts and structuring their writing. The research team will explore how AI-powered systems can predict questions and confusions that readers may have, while allowing writers to craft content in their own words rather than generating text automatically. The project seeks to study how human writers can interact with intelligent systems during the revision stage of the writing process. Evaluations will involve university students and faculty conducting typical writing tasks, assessing the system from both the writer's and reader's perspectives. The research is expected to produce fundamental knowledge about how generative AI can support writers, as well as practical open-source tools to improve written communication.
