These learning materials have been made available on ATR CALL BRIX (http://www.atr-lt.jp/products/brix/index.html), a www-based courseware with a learning management system (LMS) which contains study logs, achievement rate reports on student-set goals, the identification of students’ weak points, and advice on test-taking strategies. |
