We propose a learning paradigm in which the responsibility of choosing samples is shared between the teacher and the learner. We present an experiment that demonstrates the potential of this approach with human teachers and discuss interesting related research problems.

This paper describes a computational method of complexity of a question for an adaptive question and answer function in an intelligent support system for English learning, and its evaluation. To realize adaptive question and answer, systems should generate questions depending on both educational intentions and learner's understanding state. For generating suitable questions for a learner automa...

CALL can be a route to learner autonomy, allowing students to use PC-based software to learn individually, without need of class or teacher. However, language is above all a medium for communication, implying a dialogue of two or more participants: although CALL can provide exercises and lessons in grammar, vocabulary, writing skills etc, it might seem that conversation practice still calls for...

Abstract. EFL student teachers should support learner-centered approach to learning because it developed autonomy and benefited them in life-long pursuit of knowledge. However, anecdotal evidence showed that some still preferred teacher-centered approach. This mixed-method study was conducted find out: (1) whether there a significant relationship between the preference learner- or instructions ...
