Christiansen, Iben Maj; Els, Rosanne – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2021
Few people who did not grow up speaking Zulu have learned the language later. There are limited resources for second language Zulu learning, whether textbooks, readers, or computerised resources. We set out to develop software for this purpose, to support learners' independent learning. Drawing on research on language learning, we used a number of…

Bolgün, M. Ali; McCaw, Tatiana – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2019
With the ever-increasing number of available language technology products, there is also a need to evaluate them objectively. Unsubstantiated beliefs about what language technology can and cannot do inside or outside the language classroom often influence decisions about the choice of language technology to be used. The declarative/procedural…

Harbusch, Karin; Itsova, Gergana; Koch, Ulrich; Kuhner, Christine – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2008
We built an NLP system implementing a "virtual writing conference" for elementary-school children, with German as the target language. Currently, state-of-the-art computer support for writing tasks is restricted to multiple-choice questions or quizzes because automatic parsing of the often ambiguous and fragmentary texts produced by pupils…

Schulze, Mathias; Penner, Nikolai – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2008
The choice of grammatical framework in ICALL--the branch of CALL that applies artificial intelligence techniques--has important implications for both research and development. Matthews (1993) argued for one "that potentially meshes with SLA (second language acquisition)" (p. 5) and sketches three criteria that facilitate the crucial…

Amaral, Luiz; Meurers, Detmar – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2008
Student models for Intelligent Computer Assisted Language Learning (ICALL) have largely focused on the acquisition of grammatical structures. In this paper, we motivate a broader perspective of student models for ICALL that incorporates insights from current research on second language acquisition and language testing. We argue for a student model…

Qiao, Hong Liang – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 1996
Describes the application of the Instruction Parsed Corpus as data in the Word Class Drills version 1.0 (WCD v1.0), a simple CALL program teaching word classes or grammatical parts of speech. The WCD v1.0 provides two modes of language learning activities, "viz.", the learning mode and the testing mode. (three references) (Author/CK)

Smith, Gordon; And Others – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 1997
Drawing from a project at Coventry University (England), this article discusses innovative ways to exploit computer-assisted language learning (CALL) methods in the classroom. Particular focus is on Role Reversal, an approach that transforms students into designers of their own courseware as a means of addressing the problem of grammar…
