Annotation

This paper explores the feasibility of an experimental computerized training for fluent lexical retrieval, an essential subprocess of productive language skills, in the second language in a classroom setting, applying techniques previously restricted to laboratory use. Results indicate that students in trained-words conditions have higher accuracy scores and superior reaction times on the trained words than non-trained students.
