Computer assisted vocabulary learning in the context of foreign language learning

This study is performed to develop an educational authoring package which helps teachers produce English vocabulary learning materials with ease. For this purpose an authoring package "Wordbank" is designed in relation to English conversation class. The authoring package, "Wordbank" provides teachers with convenient way to produce vocabulary learning materials and also provides students with a chance to practice and evaluate the vocabularies dealt in classrooms. "Wordbank" has a database with 3 kinds of vocabulary learning exercises. With this package teachers can input new vocabulary items and search for the wanted vocabulary items related to the text, and give a test with exercise sets. Students can search and practice vocabularies in the text not only for the preparation for the class but also for the review of the class. Considering that web-based programs in general have difficulty in providing materials related to the class lessons and editing the contents, "Wordbank" is expected to effectively provide more chances of vocabulary learning to students.
