Abstract
Automated writing evaluation system that employs automated essay scoring technologies generates a rating to the writings which helps students with self-assessment. It provides an efficient and easy way for grading essays, which usually takes abundance of time to be evaluated by human graders; this can be greatly useful for educational institutions like schools and colleges. It provides ratings for essays based on the grammatical errors and topic relevancy by using specific tools implemented in the auto grading system. The generated result will help students grading essays which helps students in self-assessment, this will be useful for the student to understand the mistakes that he makes which will be pinpointed by the system in matter of time, not only that the system also displays the strengths of the user, but also the system will improve the accuracy compared to already existing automated grading system. The system uses scores from multiple features (handcraft features, coherence score, prompt-relevant score, and semantic score). These key features illustrated above will provide enough information on the essay for the student.
