The aim of the Helping Our Own (HOO) Shared Task is to promote the development of automated tools and techniques that can assist authors in the writing task, with a specific focus on writing within the natural language processing community.

We describe the nature of the task and the data used, report on the results achieved, and discuss some of the things we learned that will guide future versions of the task.
