インターネットによる基本英単語学習システムの開発と語彙リストの作成

抄録

The time has come to change the approach to education in universities in the face of a decrease in the number of 1 8-year-old students. One of the more effective ways to supplement their study besides lectures could be by using the LAN system on the Internet in our college. For this purpose, we have developed the online learning "Basic English 3250 Words" system using which it has been proved possible to read 89% of general English written materials. As the CGI script program can be used to check the answers of tests automatically, students are enable to calculate their score and averages on their own. The system has an English-Japanese and Japanese-English dictionary using which answers can be checked by students themselves, and there is space to send comments and queries to us for interactive communication. This system provides motivation for students to study, and at the same time teachers can easily analyze the results of tests on personal computers. After analyzing scores for each word, the word lists can be rearranged to suit individual students needs still more effectively.
