VOICE-BASED LEARNING

Abstract

A voice-based learning system is a computer system which uses voice input and voice output in an educational environment. Such systems promise two-way communication with the computer using natural language. In addition to reading and writing skills, the computer can now teach listening and speaking skills.

Foreign language educators around the country have been experimenting with voice-based learning to determine how best to
utilize these new tools in the classroom and in the language lab.
