1. Introduction: pronunciation, EFL, CALL
2. Computer-assisted pronunciation teaching and learning
a) CALL didactic flexibility in terms of approach, method, technique
b) coverage: segmentals, suprasegmentals, fast speech, grapho-phonemics, accents
c) declarative vs. procedural, knowledge vs. skill, know-that/what vs. know how
d) L1 sensitivity, learner model, error anticipation
e) technology: text-based vs. multimedia
f) visual sound representation: transcription, acoustics (waveform/spectrogram), articulation
g) audio: speech input --> recording --> recognition (ASR) --> visual interaction (?)
3. 10 years ago: CALL without ASR - pop-english 3 for Windows pronunciation component
4. Today: CALL with ASR - a sample of pronunciation-aware EFL CALL programs:
Fluency
Pronunciation Power
Better Accent
Connected Speech
Interactive Spoken Language Education (ISLE) Project
Tell Me More (Talk to Me)
