 note = {The purposes of the study are (a) to put the “cyclic model of learning” into practice by means of an LMS (Learning Management System) for foreign language teaching /learning, and (b) to examine how the “cyclic model of learning” influences improvement of students' English ability in both proficiency and achievement. Current major concerns of CALL (Computer Assisted Language learning) research have shifted from piecemeal and experimental tests of the use of technology in a single computer lab to seamless and integrated practices in a natural educational setting. In response to this transition, Takeuchi developed the “cyclic model of learning”. The model tries to integrate in-class practice and students' outside-class self-learning with the aid of technology. In this article, the “cyclic model of learning” was put into practice and tested on 19 1st-year undergraduate students for one year at a university in the Kansai region. An LMS, named CEAS (Coordinated Education Activation System), is employed to support the practice. Data were collected in a variety of ways including test, weblog, video recording, questionnaires, and classroom observation. Findings indicated that the practice based on the “cyclic model of learning” contributed to the improvement of students’ English ability in both proficiency and achievement.},
