为了使日本英语学习者有效地学习英语会话，激发他们的动机是必不可少的。基于MacIntyre等人提出的影响“愿意交流”概念的变量启发式模型，我们开发了一个英语移动的会话学习系统。该系统具有三个特点：学习者可以随时随地使用的应用程序，基于学习者兴趣和生活的主题，以及伪交互和愉快的英语会话。实验和分析结果表明，基于学习者兴趣和生活的话题可能会有效地帮助学习者从一开始就轻松地用英语交谈，并有动机地交谈，而伪互动和愉快的英语会话风格可能会帮助学习者评估自己说得更流利，更好地表达自己，在继续练习口语的过程中，他们的说话方式会更加放松。
Motivating Japanese EFL (English as a foreign language) learners is essential in order for them to learn English conversation effectively. We developed an English conversation mobile learning system based on a heuristic model of variables influencing the concept of “willing to communicate” by MacIntyre et al. The system has three features: an application that learners can use anywhere and anytime, topics based on the interests and lives of learners, and pseudo-interactive and agreeable English conversation. The results of an experiment and analysis revealed that the topics based on the interests and lives of learners might be effective for talking in English with relaxed from the beginning and for talking with motivation, while a pseudo-interactive and agreeable English conversation style might work well in helping learners evaluate themselves to speak more fluently, express themselves better, and speak in a more relaxed manner as they continue to practice speaking.
