Advanced Features for Spoken Language Tests:
-
Content & Asset Management
Original Audio & TTS Integration: Teachers can now upload their own “Reference” audio clips or use integrated Text-to-Speech (TTS) to generate high-quality pronunciation models for any text.
CSV Bulk Upload: Support for uploading up to 100 words/phrases simultaneously via CSV to eliminate manual entry.
AI Word-List Generator: Teachers input a topic (e.g., “Business Meeting”); the system uses OpenAI to generate relevant phrases with phonetic spellings.
Difficulty Scaling: One-click generation of “Beginner,” “Intermediate,” and “Advanced” versions of tests based on phonetic complexity and word length. -
Advanced Audio-Visual Feedback Tools
Rich Feedback Dashboard: Teachers can provide multi-modal feedback beyond numeric scores:
Voice Annotations: Record “Correction Clips” that appear next to the student’s attempt.
Text Notes: Add short context or tips next to specific test words.
Timestamps & Waveform Highlighting: Interactive waveforms where teachers can click specific segments to leave targeted notes (e.g., “Extra vowel sound here”).
Dual Waveform Visualizer: Utilizes to display the teacher’s reference waveform on top and the student’s below. Students can visually track rhythm, stress, and volume “peaks.” -
Student Practice & Assessment Modes
Listen & Repeat: A guided mode where the student must listen to the teacher’s reference clip before the record button is enabled.
“Shadowing” Visualizer: A real-time visual interface for the shadowing technique, where students repeat audio immediately as they hear it.
Exam Mode (Anti-Cheat): A “One-Shot” recording setting that locks the widget after a single attempt, specifically designed for mid-terms and finals.
Randomized “Live” Tests: Pulls number of random words from a larger “Question Bank” (e.g., 10 words from 50) to prevent memorization of word order. -
AI & Automation
AI-Powered Contextual Roleplay: Moves beyond static words into scenarios (e.g., Waiter vs. Customer). OpenAI analyzes both pronunciation accuracy and social appropriateness (e.g., using “May I” instead of “I want”).
Automated Spaced Repetition (SRS):
Review Queue: Low-accuracy (“Red”) words are automatically added to a “Daily Review” for 3 days.
Mastery Score: Words are marked “Completed” only after scoring 90%+ on three separate days. -
Teacher Efficiency & Reporting
Priority Grading Inbox:
AI-Flagged for Review: Smart filters highlight recordings with scores below 60% or those with more than 5 attempts.
Bulk Actions: A rapid-fire interface to listen to 2-second clips and “Pass/Fail” with a single click.
