This paper proposes a novel text interface using deep learning in a mobile platform environment and presents the English language teaching applications created based on our interface. First, an interface for handwriting texts is designed with a simple structure based on a touch-based input method of mobile platform applications. This input method is easier and more convenient than the existing graphical user interface (GUI), in which menu items such as buttons are selected repeatedly or step by step. Next, an interaction that intuitively facilitates a behavior and decision making from the input text is proposed. We propose an interaction technique that recognizes a text handwritten on the text interface through the Extended Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology (EMNIST) dataset and a convolutional neural network (CNN) model and connects the text to a behavior. Finally, using the proposed interface, we create English language teaching applications that can effectively facilitate learning alphabet writing and words using handwriting. Then, the satisfaction regarding the interface during the educational process is analyzed and verified through a survey experiment with users.

Language Teaching And Learning

This is a literature study on how to improve the quality of English language teaching and learning. Teaching, in general, can give one daily an unbelievable roller coaster ride from the depths of total frustration to the heights of incredible rewards. Teaching is a profession that is given little respect and lots of criticism. English language teaching and learning is an educational process. It requires great preparation and implementation to maintain the interaction between teacher and students. Apart from this, the teacher needs to be skillful in identifying the needs that should be fulfilled and the objectives which should be achieved. Teacher perspective needs to orient itself to the teaching and learning activities that cover selection on the instructional materials being inline with the instructional objectives, approaches, methods, techniques, and suitable tasks and exercises. The study indicates that good English teaching and learning is tied not only to the subject matter in hand but also to the perspective of teaching that upholds the learner-oriented standpoint. It is strongly suggested that English language teaching and learning needs to do more on psycho-motoric domains, in the sense that it encourages students to do more practice in their learning.This is a literature study on how to improve the quality of English language teaching and learning.

<p>Even though assessment constitutes an essential component of any educational process, pre-service and in-service teachers at large seem to ignore its multiple implications and manifestations. Assessment continues to be regarded mainly as the summative evaluation which informs teachers of students´ success or failure in their learning process based on a numeric scale. This narrowed approach may be due in part to the lack of preparation and training both in teacher education programs and professional development programs. It is the aim of this paper thus to raise awareness of the relevance of Assessment Literacy (henceforth AL) in the field of English language teaching by re-examining some definitions of assessment, reviewing various studies in the area, analysing some models and alternatives for the evaluation and development of AL in English language teaching, and finally, offering conclusions and recommendations for the development of AL among prospective and in-service teachers so that they can better serve the needs of their students and their institutions.</p>
