Computer skills development by children using 'hole in the wall' facilities in rural India.

Improving English Pronunciation: An Automated Instructional Approach The Massachusetts Institute of Technology information Technologies and International Development, Volume 1, Number 1, Fall 2003, 741–83 http://mitpress.mit.edu/catalog/item/default.asp?tid=11113&ttype=6 Abstract This paper describes an experiment in which groups of children attempted to improve their English pronunciation using an English language learning software, some English ªlms, and a speech-to-text software engine. The experiment was designed to examine two hypotheses. The first is that speechto- text software, trained in an appropriate voice, can act as an evaluator of accent and clarity of speech as well as help learners acquire a standard way of speaking. The second is that groups of children can operate a computer and improve their pronunciation and clarity of speech, on their own, with no intervention from teachers. The results of the experiment are positive and point to a possible new pedagogy. Mitra,S.
