Jager, Sake, Ed.; Bradley, Linda, Ed.; Meima, Estelle J., Ed.; Thouësny, Sylvie, Ed. – Research-publishing.net, 2014
The theme of EUROCALL 2014 was "CALL Design: Principles and Practice," which attracted approximately 280 practitioners, researchers and students from computer-assisted language learning (CALL) and related disciplines of more than 40 different nationalities. Over 170 presentations were delivered on topics related to this overarching…

Coleman, D. Wells – Simulation/Games for Learning, 1988
Addresses the potential of conversational simulations for computer-assisted language learning (CALL) and reasons why this potential is largely untapped. Topics discussed include artificial intelligence; microworlds; parsing; realism versus reality in computer software; intelligent tutoring systems; and criteria to clarify what kinds of CALL…

Higgins, John – ELT Journal, 1985
Describes a project begun as an attempt to see if it was possible to exchange meaningful messages in natural English with a machine and whether this could aid acquisition. The result is a group of dialog-stimulator programs which generate guestions, find answers to questions, obey commands, and assimilate new knowledge. (SED)

Klobusicky-Mailander, Elizabeth – Simulation/Games for Learning, 1991
Describes a computer-assisted simulation that was used to improve foreign language learning among engineering and teaching students. The use of telecommunications is discussed; the foreign policy orientation of the simulation is described; and the positive effects of the simulation on student motivation, independent learning, and cooperation are…

Kaplan, Marsha A. – Simulation & Gaming, 1997
The RECEPTION GAME teaches conversation skills to adult foreign language learners with positions in international business and diplomacy. The design combines elements of simulation and experiential learning and takes into account conversation's rapport-building function, turn-taking mechanisms, open-ended structure, listening demands for following…
