In CALL drill and practice programs offer complex feedback to learners that guides them to the correct answer through the comprehension of the language structure involved. Twenty three first year French students at the University of Amsterdam participated in the study. First year students in the French Department take a French exam at the end of the term. To help prepare for this exam they can work with a computer-aided instructional program that covers the most important parts of the subject matter on the exam.
Students do exercises and are given feedback.
The student has the opportunity to try again after the feedback. Ne donnez plus de bonbons aux enfants. Ne les en donnez pas. Ne leur en donnez pas. Oui, c'est correct.
