   Author : Arianna Zanetti; [2020-09-25]
   Keywords : ICALL; language learning; parallel corpus; exercise generation;

   Abstract : Intelligent Computer Assisted Language Learning (ICALL), or Intelligent Computer Assisted Language Instruction (ICALI), is a field of research that combines Artificial Intelligence and Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) in order to produce tools that can aid second language learners without human intervention.
