KN Error Analysis Notebook

Convert mock evidence into a transfer-tested IELTS repair system

Phase 6 adds an interactive transfer check, a priority repair queue and direct routing back to the relevant skill lab. A record stays open until the same error pattern is solved on a new lightly timed task.

Diagnostic taxonomy

Filter codes by domain to decide whether the repair belongs to language, perception, reasoning or performance.

VOCLanguage

Vocabulary gap

Meaning, word family, collocation or register was unknown or misused.

listeningreadingwritingspeaking
GRMLanguage

Grammar control

The structure was misunderstood, produced inaccurately or interpreted with the wrong scope.

listeningreadingwritingspeaking
PARLanguage

Paraphrase failure

Equivalent wording in the question, audio or text was not recognised.

listeningreadingwritingspeaking
PHNPerception

Sound perception

A phoneme, final sound, stress pattern or number was heard incorrectly.

listeningspeaking
CONPerception

Connected speech

Linking, weak forms, assimilation, elision or contractions hid the expected words.

listeningspeaking
DSTReasoning

Distractor

An early, corrected or partially matching option was selected instead of the final answer.

listeningreading
EVDReasoning

Evidence failure

The answer was not supported by an exact textual or acoustic cue.

listeningreading
INFReasoning

Inference overreach

The conclusion went beyond what the text, speaker or prompt justified.

readingwritingspeaking
TMEPerformance

Time management

Too much time was spent on one item, passage, plan or paragraph.

listeningreadingwritingspeaking
INSPerformance

Instruction violation

Word limits, response format or task requirements were not followed.

listeningreadingwritingspeaking
COHPerformance

Coherence

Ideas, sentences or turns did not form a clear and controlled progression.

writingspeaking
REGPerformance

Register

The wording was too informal, too rehearsed, unnatural or unsuitable for the task.

Notebook records

Evidence → cause → repair → transfer

DSTListeningHigh

The learner selected the first date mentioned instead of the corrected final date.

Keep open

Evidence

The speaker corrected herself after a connected-speech chunk: 'actually, make that the fifteenth'.

Cause

The learner locked onto the first keyword and did not wait for correction language.

Repair action

Collect correction phrases, shadow the audio chunk and complete a new distractor item after three days.

Interactive transfer check

Tick the gates after a fresh task. The record closes only when all four are true.

3/4 gates selected

Do not close this error yet: explanation alone is not transfer evidence.

EVDReadingHigh

The learner chose a true-sounding statement without locating the exact evidence sentence.

Keep open

Evidence

The passage stated that the pilot was temporary, not the permanent system described in option B.

Cause

The learner matched topic vocabulary but did not check the limiting phrase.

Repair action

Before selecting, underline the exact phrase that proves or blocks each option.

COHWritingHigh

The essay had topic vocabulary but no controlled paragraph progression.

Keep open

Evidence

Body paragraph 2 introduced a new claim without linking it back to the position.

Cause

The learner planned examples but not paragraph roles.

Repair action

Use a claim-evidence-impact paragraph map before typing the next Task 2 response.

PHNSpeakingMedium

The Part 2 answer was understandable but final consonants disappeared when the learner accelerated.

Keep open

Evidence

Several past-tense endings and plural markers were not audible in the recording review.

Cause

The learner prioritised speed over articulation during the long-turn answer.

Repair action

Repeat the long turn with a slower first minute, final-sound marking and one timed retake.
