  • Abstract

    The aim of our research is to explore new interaction paradigms for the design of multilingual educational software. In this poster, we present some early work on the use of multimodal interaction techniques to facilitate the simultaneous acquisition of more than one language during the period of primary language development. We suggest that multimodality can be used to deal with common multilingual phenomena such as language mixing and language dominance or specialization.
