To facilitate language learners’ reading ability and motivation in both learning Chinese and English as a foreign/second language, the Chinese Language and Technology Center at NTNU has been developing two innovative adaptive reading systems, SmartReading Chinese (SRM) and SmartReading English (SRE). This presentation, firstly, is going to report advanced technologies that the team has incorporated into these two platforms. Features and functions including online diagnostic assessment of reading abilities, personalized list of books for every student, selections of e-books suitable for students’ reading ability levels, and rewarding systems for stimulating students’ reading motivation, will also be introduced. Besides, preliminary investigation into the effectiveness of a project designed for training online international volunteer tutors to support Chinese learning for disadvantaged groups by using SRM will also be reported.
