政大英語教學資源中心於10月15日與11月14日舉辦兩場「Writefull／Curie」英文寫作協作工具介紹系列活動，吸引了眾多師生的熱情參與，現場氣氛非常熱烈。此系列活動旨在幫助參與者了解並學習，如何運用先進的英文寫作協作工具，以提升學術寫作效率與品質。活動由中心主任鍾曉芳開場，隨後由寫作諮詢成員、博士生顏郁哲主講，為參與者深入介紹了這兩款工具的功能特色及實際應用。

活動中，顏郁哲首先介紹了Writefull，一款專為學術寫作設計的 AI 輔助工具。Writefull 的核心功能在於利用人工智慧技術，自動校對文本中的語言錯誤，包括文法、拼寫和標點符號，並提供精準的語言建議，幫助使用者優化寫作內容。此外，Writefull 內建了多種智能輔助工具，例如重述工具能幫助使用者改寫句子，句子範本工具能將非正式表達轉化為學術風格，而摘要生成器與標題生成器，可協助快速撰寫摘要與標題。不僅如此，該工具還提供 GPT 檢測功能，能識別文本是否由 AI 工具生成，幫助使用者在寫作過程中保持高水平的原創性與專業性。而Writefull X 是Writefull 的線上版本，它可以在網頁上提供即時的語言校對、風格建議和寫作優化功能。Writefull for Microsoft Word 則是專為 Word 設計的附加元件，它可以將語言校對、風格建議與專業寫作工具嵌入到 Word 文檔中，方便使用者在熟悉的環境中提升寫作效率與品質。Writefull 特別適合學生與研究人員，尤其是非英語母語者，因此非常適合政大師生使用。

隨後，顏郁哲進一步講解了Curie，這是一個以學術界為主要服務對象的寫作協作工具。Curie 擅長提供寫作風格與格式的精確建議，幫助使用者改進文章的結構與細節，減少常見錯誤，並提升整體品質，使其更符合國際學術出版標準。Curie 的一大特色在於其快速修訂功能，使用者上傳文章後，工具可於短時間內生成帶有追蹤修訂的檔案，方便逐一檢查與學習。與一般的 AI 工具相比，Curie 更注重讓使用者在修訂過程中習得文法知識，從而達到提升寫作能力的目的。由於該工具採用政大圖書館購買的篇數額度限制，師生如有需求，可透過中心申請金鑰使用。

在講解完工具的主要功能與優勢後，活動進入了實作演練環節。參與者攜帶自備筆電，現場學習如何運用 Writefull 進行學術文章的分析，包括字數計算、術語頻率及使用模式檢查等，並利用智能功能識別過度或不足使用的術語。此外，參與者還實際體驗了 Curie 的修訂功能，學習提升文章格式一致性、改進結構及語法的技巧。顏郁哲更通過展示具體範例（如論文摘要及標題創作），演示工具在學術寫作中的實際應用場景，讓參與者能更直觀地理解工具的強大功能。

活動最後的互動問答環節中，鍾曉芳、顏郁哲親自走到參與者身邊，解答使用者在操作工具時的各類問題，包括帳號登入困難、不同瀏覽器的使用情況、文章上傳步驟及相關限制等。針對參與者的需求，顏郁哲也提供了進一步的學習資源與建議。整場活動參與者反應熱烈，紛紛表示 Writefull 和 Curie 不僅實用，還能大幅提升未來在學術寫作中的效率與表現。許多師生更迫不及待地表示，將在日後的寫作中積極使用這些工具。

英語教學資源中心致力於為學術社群提供多樣化的寫作支持服務，幫助師生精進英文寫作技巧與專業能力。除引入先進技術與創新工具外，中心還透過舉辦各類活動，為學生提供更多的專業指導。中心現已提供全面的英語寫作諮詢服務，由具備豐富英語教學經驗的教師與助教協助學生解決各類英文寫作問題，涵蓋學術論文、研討會報告、履歷求職信以及語言檢定考試等範疇。同時，中心利用平板電腦與 PDF 編輯軟體進行教學示範與作文修改，讓學生能即時看到具體的改進方法。

未來英語教學資源中心將持續關注學術寫作的發展，並推動更多元化的寫作支持服務，助力師生在國際學術舞台上發光發熱，為學術社群的成長與成功提供堅實的後盾。

The NCCU EMI Resource Center successfully held two sessions of the Writefull &Curie Academic Writing Tools Workshops on October 15 and November 14, 2024. The events attracted many faculty and students to participate, which built a vibrant and engaging atmosphere. The workshops aimed to help attendees better understand and utilize cutting-edge academic writing tools to enhance their writing efficiency and quality. The series began with an opening address by Professor Siaw-Fong Chung, the Director of the EMI Resource Center, and was lectured by the center’s writing consultant and a Ph.D. student, Yu-Che Yen, who has extensive experience in using writing tools. Yen provided an in-depth overview of the tools’ features and practical applications.

During the workshops, Yu-Che Yen first introduced Writefull, an AI-powered tool designed specifically for academic writing. Writefull’s main functionality leverages artificial intelligence to automatically correct linguistic errors in academic texts, including grammar, spelling, and punctuation. The tool also provides precise language suggestions to help users refine their writing. Additionally, Writefull offers several intelligent features, such as a paraphraser for rewriting sentences, a sentence palette for converting informal expressions into academic style, an abstract generator, and a title generator to assist with crafting abstracts and titles. The tool also includes a GPT detector, which identifies whether a text was generated by AI tools, thus promoting originality and professionalism. Writefull X is the online version of Writefull, offering in-time language proofreading, style suggestions, and writing enhancement features directly on web platforms. In addition, Writefull for Microsoft Word is an add-in specifically designed for Word, integrating language proofreading, style suggestions, and professional writing tools directly into Word documents, allowing users to enhance their writing efficiency and quality within a familiar environment. Writefull is particularly beneficial for students and researchers, especially non-native English speakers, making it an ideal resource for the NCCU academic community.

Yen then introduced Curie, a collaborative writing tool designed primarily for the academic community. Curie specializes in offering precise stylistic and formatting suggestions to improve the structure and details of academic texts, reducing common errors and enhancing overall quality to meet international publishing standards. One of Curie’s features is its rapid revision capability: users can upload their documents and receive revised versions with tracked changes in a matter of seconds, enabling them to review and learn from the corrections. Unlike many generated AI tools, Curie focuses on enhancing users’ understanding of grammar and writing conventions during the revision process, ultimately improving their writing skills. As NCCU’s library has purchased limited access to Curie, faculty and students can only apply for access keys through the EMI Resource Center.

After the detailed introduction of each tool’s features and advantages, participants moved on to a hands-on practice session. Equipped with their laptops, attendees explored how to use Writefull for analyzing academic articles, including word count checks, term frequency analysis, and usage pattern identification. They also experienced how the tool identifies overused or underutilized terms. Furthermore, participants tested Curie’s revision functions, learning techniques to ensure consistency in formatting and improve structural and grammatical precision. To make the applications of these tools more tangible, Yen demonstrated their use in academic writing scenarios, such as drafting abstracts and generating titles, allowing participants to see their practical value.

The final segment of the workshops featured an interactive Q&A part, where Yen and Prof. Chung addressed individual questions and concerns. Yen provided personalized guidance, troubleshooting login issues, browser compatibility problems, and document upload limitations. He also offered additional learning resources tailored to participants’ needs. The workshops received many positive feedbacks, with many attendees expressing how Writefull and Curie could significantly boost their academic writing efficiency and quality. Several participants eagerly anticipated integrating these tools into their future writing projects.

The EMI Resource Center is committed to supporting the academic community at NCCU by offering diverse services to enhance English writing proficiency and professional skills. In addition to introducing advanced technologies and innovative tools, the center organizes various activities to provide students with expert guidance. Currently, the center offers comprehensive English writing consultations led by experienced educators and teaching assistants (doctoral fellows), addressing issues related to course assignments, academic papers, journal submissions, conference presentations, résumés, cover letters, and standardized tests. The center also uses tablets and PDF editing software during consultations to provide real-time demonstrations and feedback, ensuring students can immediately see actionable improvements.

The EMI Resource Center will continue to focus on advancing academic writing support services and fostering excellence among faculty and students. By doing so, the center aims to empower the NCCU academic community to shine on the global stage and achieve greater success in the field of academic writing.
