| Research Abstract |
Research was conducted in order to develop a genre-based learning system for legal documents to be used in the English-language education of professionals in jurisprudence. The system has the following characteristics : (1) it enables students to learn important English terminology ; (2) it maintains records of individual students to support efficient study ; and (3) it has links from exercise questions to important key words and a thesaurus. The system offers the following features : user identification, presentation of exercise questions (multiple choice questions related to important English legal terminology), presentation of answers to the exercise questions (can be viewed after the exercise has been completed), and views of learner records (correct and incorrect responses and terminology). In training to become legal professionals, students can use this system from both the linguistic and professional viewpoints to both read and write (prepare) legal documents in English.
