In this theme paper, we reflect on the progress of Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE), using Ellis Page's seminal 1966 paper to frame the presentation. We discuss some of the current frontiers in the field, and offer some thoughts on the emergent uses of this technology. 1 It is not our goal to survey in detail techniques that underlie this success.
