Due to frequent international exchanges, there has been much emphasis on communication proficiency in foreign language education. However, when we look back upon teaching English in Korea over past years, we find that English teaching has been dominated mainly by Grammar-Translation Method, which makes teachers and students pay little attention to listening skill that is regarded as the basis of communication proficiency. Recently many English teachers have shown their interest in listening skill, so they come to use the textbook record tapes to improve listening skill. But listening training by textbook record tapes seems to make students feel bored. So the purpose of this study is to suggest an effective way of improving listening skill by means of Pop Songs that the students are indulged in. The processes of this study consist of three stages : 1) listening to songs, 2) explanation about structures and vocabularies in songs, 3) filling in blanks while listening. The subjects in this study are freshmen 88 students in girls' High School They are grouped into two : one is experimental group and the other control group. Among the subjects, the former have been taught by the lesson plan using pop songs, while the latter by the lesson plan using textbook record tapes. The experiment lasts about 9 months (from March to November, l994) The data for analyzing the study results have been collected from two kinds of tests : one is listening test and the other comprehensive test. The hypothesises of this study areas follows : 1) Depending on hearing materials (experimental material vs traditional material), there will be a difference in scores of listening skills between EG (experimental group) and CG (control group), 2) Depending on the interest on pop songs, there will be a difference in scores of hearing skills in CG, 3) Depending on hearing material. there will be a difference in scores of overall English skills between EG and CG, 4) Improvement in listening skill will give influence on the overall English scores. The findings of this study indicate that pop songs are effective to improve students' listening skill, that students' interest in the hearing material is important, and that listening skill is closely related to other skills, especially reading skill. It can be concluded that English teachers should make efforts to find the suitable listening materials which will help students to improve their listening proficiency effectively.

본 논문에서는 중학생이 작성한 영작문에서 자동으로 문법오류를 검색하고 채점하는 시스템을 소개한다. 학생의 문장이 입력되면 형태소 및 구문 분석을 하고 오류를 검색한다. 문장 분석이 완료되면 교사들이 제공한 채점기준에 의해 자동으로 채점한다. 문법오류를 탐지하기 위해서 정문을 처리하는 규칙은 물론 오류를 포함하고 있는 문장도 처리하는 규칙을 구현하였다. 본 시스템에서는 영어를 제2외국어로 사용하는 학생들이 한국어의 영향으로 인해 발생시키는 영어 구문오류를 집중적으로 처리하고자 하였다. 이와 같이 영작문에 대한 자동 채점은 학생들에게 오류에 대한 즉각적인 피드백을 제공하여 스스로 자신의 영어실력을 모니터할 수 있게 해 준다. 이러한 시스템을 활용함으로써 학생들은 언제 어디서나 혼자서 영작문 공부를 할 수 있으며, 이는 학생들의 실력 향상에 많은 도움이 될 것이다.
