Workarounds Described

• gathering informal feedback from students
• reviewing past essays manually to find patterns

Implied Software Gaps

• Automated essay analysis tool that identifies specific writing skill gaps

WriteGap Analyzer

A software that analyzes student writing submissions to identify common skill gaps (e.g., thesis crafting, evidence use) and generates class-wide and individual reports. It helps teachers tailor instruction and track progress over time, saving hours of manual assessment.
