Abstract
Even technically inexperienced teachers can create some of their own virtual training units with this most practical tool for everyday teaching use. Previous e-learning solutions have not as yet been able to meet the demand for self-developed tasks that suit the requirements of a particular learning group and this was the reason for this project coming into being. The tasks, as in the later final examination, are based on a number of pre-defined types such as multiple-choice tests, true/false and gap texts. The tool is suitable not only for individual exam practice by the student but also for doing automatically evaluated tests in the lesson situation. The tasks are available either on CD or in the Internet as required. Since its conception this learning system has met with a high degree of approval among teaching staff by way of its ease of application. After regular use in foreign language teaching a significant improvement in student performance has been noted.
