In a previous paper (Ishihara, et al., 2008), the authors reported that they created computer-assisted instruction software for assisting unsuccessful learners of English as a foreign language. The aim of this software is to improve learners' lexical working memory and automatic processing of orally presented words, their meanings and spellings. We, in the development of this software, focus on its effect on participants' phonological recognition. We discuss the results of the training with 34 university students who used the software for approximately 15 minutes in a weekly English class for 18 weeks. The effect was measured by analyzing the game histories, or recognition tasks, and dictation tests, or reproduction tasks. The participants' performance improved overall: in particular, 21 participants who took part in 90 percent or more of 11 training sessions showed significant improvement in both recognition and reproduction tasks.
