Nowadays computers are increasingly being incorporated into school curriculums and serious games are occupying the educational games markets. This article addressed the integration of serious games as tools for learning and teaching English in Iranian schools to zero-beginner students. An experiment was concluded using Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) to investigate the effectiveness ...

A computer assisted pronunciation teaching system (CAPT) is a fundamental component in a computer assisted language learning system (CALL). A speech recognition based CAPT system often requires a large amount of speech data to train the incorrect phone models in its speech recognizer. But collecting incorrectly pronounced speech data is a labor intensive and costly work. This paper reports an e...

Authenticity of language learning tasks, authenticity of learning experiences and the use of authentic language are important characteristics of communicative language teaching and learning. In this article, ways of achieving productive use of authentic language in a computer-assisted language learning environment are discussed. This discussion concentrates on a particular area of CALL—parser-b...

Researches in speech synthesis and speech analysis are underpinned by the databases they used. The performance of an emotion classifier relies heavily on the qualities of the training and testing data. A good database can make researches in these fields achieving better results. Hearing-impaired people are poor in presenting their emotions in speech. We want develop a computer-assisted speech t...

Prior research that examined the effectiveness of face-to-face versus various computer-assisted teaching methods has resulted in “no significant differences.” However, this research was conducted without the benefit of a theoretical model that could be tested empirically with structural equation modeling techniques. The purpose of this paper is to develop such a model that will be operationaliz...
