| Challenge: | Lack of wide-coverage and high-quality LRs is a longstanding issue in natural language processing (NLP) however, there are no large initiatives of similar scale for creating new LR or improving existing ones. |
| Approach: | They propose a generic approach to combine implicit crowdsourcing and language learning to mass-produce language resources (LRs) they describe its core paradigm that consists in pairing specific types of LRs with specific exercises . |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach can be used in several learning scenarios to produce a multitude of NLP resources and alleviate the long-standing issue of the lack of LRs. |
