The expression "computer-assisted instruction" (CAl) is generally used to describe situations in which the computer is used as a teaching surrogate in some sense--whether as drill instructor, tester, or specialized tutor. ~Tost applications of this kind have had specific, limited, and modest educational goals. When used to administer drills or branching tests, a computer is not called upon to b...

Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing many aspects of education and gradually being introduced to language education. This article reviews the literature examine main trends common findings in relation AI technologies applications for second foreign learning teaching. With special reference computer-assisted (CALL), explores natural processing (NLP), data-driven (DDL), automated wri...

In this study, the effects of constructivist learning and computer-assisted instruction on achievement attitudes high school 2nd grade students in folk literature unit were examined by comparing with traditional teaching methods. The sample study consisted 60 studying a Arkalyk, Kazakhstan. was taught using computer assisted method experimental group, while methods used control group. Construct...

This article presents an environment developed for Learner Corpus Research and Error Analysis which makes it possible to deal with language errors from different points of view and with several aims. In the field of Intelligent Computer Assisted Language Learning (ICALL), our objective is to gain a better understanding of the language learning process. In the field of Natural Language Processin...

This paper presents an intelligent CALI system called “Nihongo-CALI” (Japanese Computer Assisted Language Instruction), which employs natural language processing to provide immediate, grammatically sophisticated feedback to students in an interactive environment. Using this system, Nagata (1993) previously compared the effectiveness of the two different levels of computer feedback for teaching ...

Due to the increased popularity of e-learning, the phrase “blended learning” has recaptured people’s attention. The manner in which blended-learning classes can be designed to improve learning effectiveness has become an important issue. This study combines classroom learning (abbreviated as C) with computer-assisted programmed instruction (abbreviated as E) to implement C + E. Based on the pri...

As a way of reinforcing classroom-based lessons, especially for continuous evaluation, the authors experimented with remote conferences and tutoring. These seminars were directed at three different groups of students: those who are struggling with the subject, those who were unable to attend all the lessons, and those seeking deeper insight. The authors experimented with different platforms for...

We developed a dialogue-based tutoring system for teaching English to Japanese students and plan to transfer the current software tutoring agent into an embodied robot in the hope that the robot will enrich conversation by allowing more natural interactions in small group learning situations. To enable smooth communication between an intelligent agent and the user, the agent must have realistic...

The ICICLE project is a Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) environment geared toward teaching English as a second language. This paper reports on an initial prototype application of the system for deaf learners of written English. A primary focus of the ICICLE effort has been devoted to enabling the system to adapt to a learning user over the evolution of language proficiency. In this p...
