- Summary:
-
This article points out the difficulty of finding computer assisted language learning (CALL) software that is both appropriate for teachers' pedagogical needs and user friendly. Authoring programs offer simplicity but little flexibility. Innovative software requires the use of authentic programming languages or more sophisticated software. The ideal place to create programs is a university language center. Two examples in which such centers played a fundamental role are presented. The first is a "musical dictation," which develops and tests listening comprehension, phonetic-phonological discrimination, and spelling. The student listens to the Italian song "Belli Capelli" and completes the text that appears on the computer screen with missing words. The program then analyzes the student's responses. The second example is CALIS (Computer Assisted Language Instruction System). A fundamental characteristic of CALIS is the various categories of windows available to the author and to the student (question, text, and tutorial windows). The second important characteristic is the organization of the program in tasks. The student must give a correct answer before proceeding to the next task. The program allows the insertion of sound tracks and films in the tasks. Although this program has tremendous flexibility, it is not particularly user friendly for the author-teacher. Contains 18 references. (CFM)
