Abstract
A language listening and speaking teaching system and method that utilize a random tests function to provide full-scale and various language training subjects and enable a learner to set up the listening and speaking training process according to his/her preference and create a more well-chosen shadowing learning process. Moreover, it assists a learner by enhancing and deepening the listening and speaking training content through an instant paraphrase and definition function, following completion of the shadowing learning process.
Claims14
A language listening and speaking training system with features of random tests, well-chosen shadowing (vocal imitation) and instant paraphrase and definition, the system further comprising:
- a teaching material database, to store at least one teaching material samples;
- a random test module, to retrieve a teaching material sample for proceeding shadowing learning from the teaching material database through a specific test retrieving procedure;
- a parameter setup module, to enable a learner to proceed a parameter setup before a language listening and speaking training;
- and
- a shadowing learning module, to output the teaching material sample based on pre-set data by the parameter setup module and provide an explanatory message to the learner, after the shadowing learning process is completed.
A language listening and speaking training method with features of random tests, well-chosen shadowing (vocal imitation) and instant paraphrase and definition, the method further comprising the following steps:
- starting up the listening and speaking learning system and executing an initial parameter setup task;
- retrieving a specific teaching material sample through a specific test retrieving procedure;
- outputting the teaching material sample for the learner to process shadowing learning;
- providing an explanatory message after the learner completing the shadowing learning process;
- and
- completing the training.
