Abstract

Many people have difficulty learning foreign languages, especially when it comes to pronouncing words and phrases exactly.¹ A 3-dimesional animated agent, in this case a computer animation which models the motions of important instruments of speech, can be an effective tool for teaching and learning how to pronounce desired words and phrases exactly.
