Foreign language teaching in Computer-Assisted Language laboratory based on contrastive studies with Japanese

1.通过考察主述句和主谓句的结构，对日语和目的语西班牙语进行对比研究。日语使用者的西班牙语话语中存在差异：在西班牙语句子中不能作为主位的名词短语在日语使用者的句子中出现主位.首席调查员使用HTML制作了初级西班牙语视听材料。(1)每节课都包括正文/课文、语法解释和练习。每个部分都链接在一起（作为补充部分，如变形表）（2）由于其图形用户界面，使用的材料可以教得很快，每个学生可以按照自己的节奏听母语阅读句子。(3)日语字符和带有变音符号的西班牙语字符在不同的帧中同时表示。(4)在语法解释部分，除了日语解释外，还使用了屈折变化表和示例，图片和动画的链接，以促进理解。(5)学生可以立即看到他在练习中是否选择了正确的答案。在从日语到西班牙语的翻译练习中，学生可以听一段示范的对话.从问卷调查和期末考试的结果来看，教材在课堂上的使用受到学生的欢迎. (1)继续进行对比研究并将其结果纳入材料中，（2）创建更具互动性的部分和（3）中级材料仍有待于下一阶段完成。

1. Contrastive studies between Japanese and the target (foreign) language Spanish by means of an investigation of the construction of theme-predicate and subject-predicate. Differences were observed in the Spanish utterances of Japanese speakers : noun phrases that can not be themes in Spanish sentences appeared as themes in sentences made by Japanese speaker.2. The chief investigator created elementary Spanish audiovisual materials, using HTML.(1) Each lesson consisted of body/text, grammar explanations, and exercises. Each section was linked together (as were supplementary parts such as inflection tables)(2) Because of its GUI, the use of the materials can be taught quickly, and each student can then work at his/her own pace listening to a native speaker reading sentences.(3) The Japanese characters and the Spanish characters with diacritic marks are represented at the same time in different frames.(4) In the grammar-explanation section the linkages of inflection tables and examples, pictures and animations are used in addition to explanations in Japanese to facilitate understanding.(5) The student can see immediately whether he selected the right answer or not in the exercises. In the translation exercises from Japanese to Spanish the student can listen to a model sentence.3. Judging from the responses to questionnaires and from the results of the term exams the use of the materials in the classroom was welcomed by the students.4. (1) Continuation of the contrastive studies and incorporation of their results in the materials, (2) Creation of more interactive parts and (3) that of materials of intermediate levels remain to be done in next stage.
