Jaspers, Fons; Ji-Ping, Zhang – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 1991
Discussion of computer-assisted learning (CAL) and the instructional functions of audio highlights the development of an interactional audio-CAL system used for second-language learning. Levels of interactivity in media are discussed, hardware that would add audio to a CAL system is described, and future research is suggested. (10 references) (LRW)

Engel, F. L.; Andriessen, J. J. – Educational Technology, 1981
Two experiments assessed individual and group response to using a microcomputer for vocabulary improvement in Dutch to English instruction. Findings indicate that a compromise has to be found between a straightforward learning aid such as a microcomputer and a more general purpose instructional system with additional facilities like sound and…
