| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, in a CALL environment, we aim to enhance the ability to read English fast in actual university English classes by using a software to display a dynamic chunking text. In this practice, students read silently or aloud a passage simultaneously with this chunking display. As a result of this training, we saw improvements of reading efficiency, which denotes reading speed multiplied by reading rate. Group of oral reading, in particular, significantly improved their reading speed, which may have pushed up their reading efficiency. Besides, we also confirmed an effect on their motivation by an affective questionnaire. Furthermore, a newly developed software enabled us to give instant feedback of training and test data to students easily. It went through a formative evaluation.
