Openly licenced pedagogical database of English sentences (for English language education at Kosen)

我们制作了一个英语句子数据库，其中不仅有普通英语，而且还有工程、商业和学术英语，这些都是科森技术学院的学生必须学习的。数据库中存储的英语句子标记了难度和语法项目，这些项目是从科森学生的专业英语语言知识的语法和技术特征中挑选出来的。使用名为CALIS(计算机辅助语言教学系统)的创作系统对标记的句子进行了评估，以评估其是否适合科森的英语教育。课题组成员开发的写作系统使用了VBA编写的MS Word和Excel模板，使kosen英语教师可以在计算机上轻松地生成高质量的教材。

We made a database of English sentences not only in general English but also in English for engineering, business and academic purposes, which students of colleges of technology, or Kosen, are required to learn. The English sentences stored in the database were tagged with levels of difficulty and grammatical items which were selected from the grammatical and technical features characterizing specialized English language knowledge for Kosen students. The tagged sentences were evaluated in terms of suitability for the English language education at Kosen using an authoring system named CALIS (Computer Assisted Language Instruction System). The authoring system developed by a member of our research project makes use of some MS Word and Excel templates programmed using VBA, which enables Kosen English teachers to easily generate quality teaching materials on computers.
