Manipulating the difficulty of c-tests
We propose two novel manipulation strategies for increasing and decreasing the difficulty of
C-tests automatically. This is a crucial step towards generating learner-adaptive exercises
for self-directed language learning and preparing language assessment tests. To reach the
desired difficulty level, we manipulate the size and the distribution of gaps based on
absolute and relative gap difficulty predictions. We evaluate our approach in corpus-based
experiments and in a user study with 60 participants. We find that both strategies are able to …
