  abstract  = {This study presents SMILLE, a system that draws on the Noticing Hypothesis and
	on input enhancements, addressing the lack of salience of grammatical infor
	mation in online documents chosen by a given user. By means of input
	enhancements, the system can draw the user’s attention to grammar, which
	could possibly lead to a higher intake per input ratio for metalinguistic
	information. The system receives as input an online document and submits it to
	a combined processing of parser and hand-written rules for detecting its
	grammatical structures. The input text can be freely chosen by the user,
	providing a more engaging experience and reflecting the user’s interests. The
	system can enhance a total of 107 fine-grained types of grammatical structures
	that are based on the CEFR. An evaluation of some of those structures resulted
	in an overall precision of 87%.},
