The system can be made upof various courses depending on the needs and the budget of colleges and universities. The KyushuUniversity version has a standard listening & reading course, an elementary TOEIC course and atechnical writing course.The author adopted the standard course for one class each in the fall semester of 2003 and thespring semester of 2004. The results of a pretest, a posttest and other trial tests, convince us of theexcellence of the system in question and the effectiveness of an online English learning system ingeneral.The purpose of the present paper is to claim that an online English learning system like this is suitableto develop international communicative ability. We do not argue, however, that this sort ofonline English learning system should completely take over the job of human instructors. The idealstate of affairs is that exciting and pleasant English classes organized by human teachers are reinforcedby intensive training with the help of computer network.
