This volume argues that adults can learn English as a second language if their typical errors are corrected systematically and in line with their preferred style of learning. The remedy designed for this purpose relies on artificial intelligence. The book describes original research which demonstrates the success of this approach.

"This book examines the conditions under which artificial intelligence and its related approach, Intelligent Computer Assisted Language Learning (ICALL), could be truly useful to adult learners of English as a second language. Its purpose is to demonstrate the learnability of a second language by focusing on some errors in English as a second language and to propose remediation leading to an overall increase in English proficiency. The book also describes the pioneering steps taken by the author toward such a goal." The aim of this volume is to cater to a wide range of audiences associated with the field of Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL). In a true cross-disciplinary fashion it brings together instances of research in second language acquisition, language awareness, computer assisted language learning, artificial intelligence and natural language processing. It is intended for language teachers, students of applied linguistics and language engineering as well as for applied linguists in general.
