GENERATIVE LANGUAGE TRAINING USING ELECTRONIC DISPLAY

摘要

Methods of conducting generative language training using a training corpus having a plurality of words and a plurality of stimuli are described. A stimulus is presented via an electronic display. A selection is received from visual representations of a plurality of the words represented on the display. It is determined whether the selected words correspond to the represented words in the stimulus. A mastery level can be determined based on correspondence of the responses and stimuli and the training corpus or sequence modified based on the mastery level. Another method includes receiving mastery-level data for multiple learners and determining a training sequence using relative difficulties determined from the mastery-level data. Another method includes determining a proficiency level using the correspondence of responses and, if the determined proficiency level corresponds to an intervention criterion, performing an intervention sequence including detecting word selections and unlocking inputs.

主权项

1. A method of conducting generative language training using a training corpus having a plurality of words and a plurality of stimuli, the method comprising automatically performing the following steps using a processor:
determining a stimulus by selecting one of the stimuli according to a selected training sequence; presenting the stimulus via an electronic display, the stimulus representing multiple ones of the words; presenting visual representations of a plurality of the words via the display, wherein each word is included in at least one of a plurality of categories and the presenting includes presenting the respective visual representations of one word included in a first one of the categories and one different word included in a second, different one of the categories; receiving a selection of a plurality of the presented words via an input device; determining whether the selected words correspond to the represented words in the stimulus and recording an indication of the result of the determination; and repeating the presenting-stimulus through determining-and-recording steps for each of one or more of the stimuli according to the training sequence.
