        <note type="summary">The BAWE corpus contains 2761 pieces of proficient assessed student
          writing, ranging in length from about 500 words to about 5000 words. Holdings are fairly
          evenly distributed across four broad disciplinary areas (Arts and Humanities, Social
          Sciences, Life Sciences and Physical Sciences) adn across four levels of study
          (undergraduate and taught masters level). Thirty-five disciplines are represented. The
          assignments have been annotated using a system devised in accordance with the TEI
          guidelines. There is a dtd file which must be kept in the same folder as the corpus files,
          named tei_bawe.dtd and the holdings are described in an Excel spreadsheet 'BAWE.xls'. The
          transcription and mark-up conventions are described in the BAWE manual document, which is
          in PDF format. </note>

        <p>The British Academic Written English (BAWE) corpus was created through a collaboration
          between the Univeristies of Warwick, Reading and Oxford Brookes as part of the project 'An
          investigatin of genres of assessed writing in British Higher Education' funded by the
          Economic and Social Resaerch Council (ESRC). The aims of the research were to identify
          genres of assessed writing in UK Higher Education and to investigate textual variation
          across disciplines and year of study in the context of academic conventions and tutor
          expectations of student writing. From the research, a database was created for use by
          researchers who are investigating the nature of academic writing. </p>
