Learner-content interaction is one of the four interaction types in computer assisted instruction systems. “Without leaner-content interaction, little or no learning will occur” (Moore, 1993). The authors developed a web-based vocabulary and listening learning and assessment system for English instruction, which focuses on the learner-content interaction based on the behaviorisms learning theory. The authors integrated it into a normal English class weekly for a term in a high school located in a rural province in China. They analyzed the student exam scores, the student survey answers, learner-content interaction records in the learning system, and their relationship using statistical software SPSS. The research reveals that there exists almost significant positive correlation between learner-content interaction and learning performance, but there is not any correlation between the learner-content interaction and learner satisfaction. The survey results also demonstrated the learners’ satisfaction with this interactive learning system. The reasons for those findings are analyzed. Finally, limitations and further work are discussed.
