Automated collection of human performance data in human/computer interaction studies is not only time and cost efficient, but more reliable and accurate, and less intrusive than manual data collection. In many cases, it allows that measurement of additional dependent variables. In the experiment described in this report, an automated data collection system was successfully used, resulting in time, cost, and data savings. The metering system includes modules which collected the data during the experimental session, and others which reduced the raw data into a usable form. By designing the software in flexible modules, adaptation to later studies has been simple and easy.

This paper reviewed a series of studies which investigated the validity of educational soft ware as tools to promote EFL learning. A metasummary approach was used to appraise and synthesize the main fi ndings of four studies. The results are presented in a comparative form, providing information extracted from each report in the following domains: objectives of the studies, instruments of data collection, sample composition, theoretical background, major fi ndings and conclusions and implications of the studies. It is concluded that the four studies reviewed do believe in the contribution of technology to EFL teaching and learning but express a concern about the integration of human-computer interaction and pedagogic features of educational soft ware for EFL learning.

The conference topic areas encompassed methodological issues in data collection and analysis, human computer interaction and socio-technical issues. The conference was well attended, with approximately 100 delegates who attended from all areas of Australia and New Zealand and a couple of international visitors as well.

Continuous paper-pencil data collection and summarizing time was monitored and compared with an automated data collection system made possible by a microprocessor computer. Fifteen autistic and/or severely handicapped students ranging in age from four years to fourteen years participated in the study. The automated data collection system was found to be significantly faster and more precise than the conventional paper-pencil recording of individual trials and summarization of trials.
