An Interactive Language Learning Model On the Internet- Theory and Initial Design Specifications （下）_计算机网络论文 An Interactive Language Learning Model On the Internet: Theory and Initial Design Specifications （下）_计算机网络论文 As discussed above, visual, audio, graphic and animation technology give us the basic tools, but yet what is missing is the ability for a computer program to act as a tutor or a partial teacher. The lack of this ability has limited the present programs to a more passive role in language learning. The search for how and what we need to achieve the intended objectives led us to the field of computer technology, especially artificial intelligence that has provided us with greater possibilities. The advance of modern technology not only enables us to attempt what was unthinkable before, but also encourages us to use our imagination and to venture into areas where the pioneers have tried and yet were unable to achieve in their time. However, their efforts have advanced the field, shed great light and laid the foundation on which to build. We will have a brief look at the related aspects of the technology. Virtual reality modeling language allowed the author to create a 3-D web site that provides a near real environment or a virtual reality. By employing this technology we intend to allow our students to use the language in a close to authentic setting rather than facing a blank page. Computer modeling and simulation made it possible for people to venture beyond their experiences. For example, flight or driving simulators are used to train pilots and drivers, which allow users to test their abilities without risking their lives. In a similar way we wish to offer our language learners a simulated environment for them to test their wings safely before stumbling into unknown territories. Artificial intelligence techniques permit computers to do things in which, at the moment, people do better, such as the ability to perceive, reason and respond. There have be
