CALL can aid Japanese students in learning traditional courses such as grammar. Japanese students spend years studying how to use grammar but still cannot produce grammatically correct English. I recommend using the following program to teach grammar as it provides a CD-ROM and CD with interactive exercises that allow students to work independently at their own pace. Students were very positive about the course as was shown in a short survey that I conducted in which they were allowed to choose as many appropriate answers as they liked. A total of 70 students participated in the survey. Although less than half found the textbook helpful, over 70% enjoyed grammar exercises through listening. And in the case of the CD-ROM, students found the computer-assisted class fun and entertaining because they enjoyed taking the initiative in exploring the language. Now they are happy to do more active grammar. If students want to master a target language, then they have to be actors or actresses. They have to take the initiative in guiding themselves; they have to be involved and learn actively on their own. CALL reduces passive learning activity and so students'language will be improved.
