Research on Assessment of Online Foreign Language Teaching System

Abstract

With the rapid advancement of information and education technology, online teaching systems and software has emerged like mushrooms. More specifically, the booming of online language teaching systems has greatly facilitated instructors’ teaching and students’ learning. However, the lack of comprehensive and scientific assessment mechanism of these systems has also brought about problems. Thus, this paper starts with the overview and discussion of current situation of online learning system education assessment in China and then tentatively proposes basic principles in language teaching software assessment. By so doing, the paper concludes that with consideration of all relevant aspects, systems that cater to both instructors’ teaching demands and learners’ learning demands will remarkably boost language learning.
