Abstract

The ultimate aim of our research is a free, evolutionary, Internetbased, agent-based, long-distance teaching environment for academic English. For this purpose, we are building 2 environments: student learning and teacher courseware design environment. Here we focus on the second research direction, on constructing the teacher authorware environment (courseware management), and especially on a new method of automatic, knowledge computingbased courseware indexing that uses the AI paradigm of Concept Mapping.
