The purpose of this project is to investigate how the use of Extended Concepts Maps combined with Speech Recognition to improve lower-order and higher-order critical thinking. The first year plan was the technical development of the system and to find student attitudes to the using speech recognition.An initial test into the accuracy of speech recognition was performed and presented at the JALTCALL conference of 2022. It was found that speech recognition was very accurate for native speakers but had varying levels of accuracy with non-native speakers. There was a correlation between speaker level and accuracy but it was not statistically significant due to the small sample and the difficulty ascertaining actual non-native speaker level.A brief pilot study was performed in conjunction with Tokyo Medical and Dental University with Jeanette Dennisson to ascertain attitudes towards using Speech Recognition in a drilled setting and this feedback is still being analyzed but initial analysis shows that the feedback was broadly positive for the use in learning and issues were mainly confined to minor technical issues.Integration of ChatGPT has been performed despite it only appearing in November 2022 with its use being accepted for two future conferences.

该项目的目的是研究如何使用扩展概念图与语音识别相结合以改善低阶和高阶批判性思维。第一年计划是该系统的技术开发，并找到对使用语音识别的学生态度。在2022年的Jaltcall会议上进行了口语识别的初步测试，并介绍了语音识别的准确性。发现语音识别对于母语人士而言非常准确，但对非本地演讲者的准确性程度不同。扬声器水平和准确性之间存在相关性，但是由于样本少以及难以确定实际的非本地说话者水平的困难，这在统计学上并不显着。进行了简短的试点研究，与东京医学和牙科大学一起进行了与Jeanette Dennisson与Jeanette Dennisson一起进行的态度，以确定在钻机中使用钻探的态度，但在钻探中进行了分析，但要确定态度的态度。尽管它仅在2022年11月出现，但仍在两次将来的会议上接受了它的使用，但它主要限于小型技术问题。
