Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We proposed and evaluated the following two methods to support shy and unmotivated English learners in Japan: (1) convert the native English speech into Japanese-accented pronunciation and (2) feedback measurable indicators of English conversation skills such as response time and sentence length. In addition, based on analysis of factors of less participation in large group communication, we developed a chat system that encourages participation without exerting excessive pressure by displaying the degree of participation on a team basis.
