C-Test Collector: A Proficiency Testing Application to Collect Training Data for C-Tests
Christian Haring, Rene Lehmann, Andrea Horbach, Torsten Zesch
Abstract
We present the C-Test Collector, a web-based tool that allows language learners to test their proficiency level using c-tests. Our tool collects anonymized data on test performance, which allows teachers to gain insights into common error patterns. At the same time, it allows NLP researchers to collect training data for being able to generate c-test variants at the desired difficulty level.- Anthology ID:
