“…Samuel M. Berger and Timothy D. Ludwig 5 Voice and Computer-Based Instruction CBI, previously known as computer-assisted instruction (CAI), involves the use of computer software to aid an individual in learning a particular task. CBI has been used to train mathematical knowledge (Ku et al, 2004), languages (De Haan & Oppenhuizen, 1994), and employee behaviors (Eckerman et al, 2004).…”

A foodservice distributor in the southeastern United States implemented a voice assisted selecting tool to reduce selector errors by providing immediate feedback when errors occurred. An AB design with a nonequivalent comparison group was used to examine the effects of the voice technology on 132 selectors whose mispicks and shorts were collected over 6 weeks of baseline and 8 weeks of the intervention phase. Selector errors were reduced from 2.44 errors per 1,000 cases picked to 0.94 errors per 1,000 cases when voice technology was implemented. Further analysis indicated that the immediate feedback provided by voice had a greater impact on employees who were making the most errors during baseline.

SPELLER (de Haan & Oppenhuizen, 1994) is an intelligent tutoring system which uses phoneme-grapheme conversion rules to help Dutch-speaking learners of English to solve orthographic problems. SANTY (Rimrott, 2003) is a spell checker for German which uses regular expressions in order to correct morphological errors.…”

This paper presents FipsOrtho, a spell checker targeted at learners of French, and a corpus of learners’ errors which has been gathered to test the system and to get a sample of specific language learners’ errors. Spell checkers are a standard feature of many software products, however they are not designed for specific language learners’ errors. After a brief review of the state of the art, we describe the system’s architecture and interfaces. Then we describe our error typology and detail the techniques used to retrieve words and to order proposals appropriately: alphacode, phoneticization, ad-hoc, capitalization, apostrophe, and word separation error methods. Proposals are sorted by a score depending on the method(s) used to retrieve them, on the expected lexical category, gender, number and person, and on the string proximity with the unknown word. Then the test results are presented: a list of individual words containing errors was submitted to the alphacode and phoneticization methods; a corpus of authentic learners’ errors was gathered and analyzed. Finally we conclude the paper with some limitations of the system and ideas for future research.

“…In the context of computer-based instruction, adaptive instructional programs are often qualified as intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs). Wellknown examples of such systems can be found in Capell & Dannenberg (1993), De Haan & Oppenhuizen (1994), Krammer, van Merrienboer, & Maaswinkel (1994), , Vasandani & Govindaraj (1994), Vos (1994), Wu & Lee (1998). Tennyson, Christensen, & Park (1984) denoted their ITS as the Minnesota Adaptive Instructional System (MAIS).…”
