A major concern in the area of foreign language instruction has been the enhancement of effective teaching strategies and pedagogical approaches. There has been an increasing attempt in recent years to apply the new technology as part of this endeavor. This paper will describe a current research effort to determine the nature of effective instructional methodology and multimedia courseware design in the area of Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) through a reconstruction and reanalysis of an existing Korean interactive video courseware. By studying its design decisions and underlying pedagogical principles documented through the Instructional Design Environment or IDE, empirical research will be conducted on how learners respond to and make use of various HELP options in acquiring their language skills. The project's ultimate objective is to apply these research results to the design and development of intelligent authoring tools for language learning.References
