Along with these new capabilities come concerns that generated fluent text can impact writers’ processes in unintended ways, especially for students. In this workshop paper, we look to a similar transition that writing centers experienced over the last century, which shifted focus from fixing surface-level issues to maintaining student writer voices. We interviewed 10 current writing tutors and grounded their described practices with ideas proposed in writing center literature. We employed these strategies in developing an intelligent writing tool prototype. We describe the design of our tool and discuss potential evaluations along with how to foster deeper relationships between writers and writing centers using intelligent writing tools.
