| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research is to develop a computer-adaptive language learning system (CALLs). The features of the system are to automatically evaluate students’ English ability and provide them with an appropriate level of English grammar and vocabulary multiple-choice test items. In addition, it displays hints according to students’ responses and directs them to the correct answer and resources for further learning. To achieve this, three major projects were conducted; (a) the development of a placement test, (b) the development of an e-learning system, and (c) the development and application of a CALLs. Our findings confirmed that the developed systems not only resulted in a substantial solution to identified problems at the university, but also presented the possibility of making contributions to the Japanese universities that share similar problems.
