Practice and feedback in L2 speaking: an evaluation of the DISCO CALL system
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we report on the ASR-based CALL system DISCO: Development and Integration of Speech technology into COurseware for language learning. The DISCO system automatically detects pronunciation and grammar errors in Dutch L2 speaking and generates appropriate, detailed feedback on the errors detected. We briefly introduce DISCO and present the results of a first evaluation of the complete system.

Recent research has shown that a properly designed ASRbased CALL system (Dutch-CAPT) was capable of detecting pronunciation errors and of providing comprehensible feedback on pronunciation. Since pronunciation is not the only skill required for speaking a second language, we explored the possibility of extending the Dutch-CAPT approach to other aspects of speaking proficiency like morphology an...

متن کاملLearners' situated motivation in oral grammar practice with an ASR-enabled CALL system
Advances in speech recognition (ASR) technology have resulted in computer applications that provide compelling forms of speaking practice to learners of a second language (L2). Evaluation of such applications typically does not include an analysis of how learners’ situated motivational states fluctuate during language practice. In connection with recent developments in L2 motivation theory, thi...
متن کاملSpoken grammar practice in an ASR-based CALL system
In this paper we present a computer assisted language learning (CALL) system that is developed to practice grammar in spoken language. To enable this, the system uses Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) to process the L2 learner’s responses. We investigate the possibility of providing corrective feedback (CF) on learner errors, and compare that with self-monitored language learning through outpu...
