Essays are manually pseudonymized, normalized and correction annotated for ortographical, lexical, morphological, syntactical and punctuation errors according to the guidelines available at [1]. Essays are also linguistically annotated (POS tagging, lemmatization, dependency annotation) with Sparv. Personal learner metadata is also available.

Data collection is limited to a small geographical area and a short period of time. Although several language backgrounds are represented, the corpus is very unbalanced in this sense and as a consequence not well suited for native language identification tasks.

The corpus is primarily intended for Second Language Acquisition studies and development of Grammatical Error Correction and automatic pseudonymization systems.
