Interactivity in CALL Courseware Design.
Meskill, Carla
CALICO Journal, v5 n1 p9-14 Sep 1987
Three elements to be considered in computer-assisted language instruction courseware design are: (1) environment; (2) visuals; and (3) timing. Computer-generated environments must be dynamic, flexible, challenging, and engaging. Visuals must be easily readable, uncluttered, consistently laid out. Program time should be balanced with real time. (Author/LMO)
