AAA4LLL - Acquisition, Annotation, Augmentation for Lively Language Learning

Abstract

In this paper we describe a method for enhancing the process of studying Japanese by a user-centered approach. This approach includes three parts: an innovative way of acquiring learning material from topic seeds, multifaceted sentence analysis to present sentence annotations, and the browserintegrated augmentation of perusing Wikipedia pages of special interest for the learner. This may result in new topic seeds to yield additional learning content, thus repeating the cycle. 2012 ACM Subject Classification Information systems → Browsers; Computing methodologies → Lexical semantics; Applied computing → E-learning
