1. Seleaf: Features and Specifications
http://www.mintap.com- Is a cloud-based search engine for a tagged corpus of spoken English
along with its video pictures from movies.- stores 20 hours of 20 premier movies, which are broken down into
30,000 scenes, 20,000 phrases, and 130,000 words.- enables you to search movie scenes by its script: text data are stored
in such a way as to be synchronized with their speech data and visual information.
- English transcription and the Japanese subtitles can be switched on an off.
- Each word is lemmatized: e.g. the search word go leads you to go, went, gone, goes and going

2. Academic Use of Seleaf
- spoken English based on 20 movies from the both continents.- Approximately 20,000 phrases phrase were cut out by pause-
detecting program using the default value 100 msec.- the average number of words per phrase is 6.1 words and the
average duration is 1.92 seconds: - almost parallel to the reported time constraints for language
processing such as the working memory and its supposed phonological loop (Baddeley, 1992; 2000).
- The Drill section provides valuable data about the learners’ error behaviour.

3. Educational Use of Seleaf
- To present movie scenes to show how a particular word or phrase is used in conversational settings.
- To demonstrate examples of how phonetic features of English are realized (along with the speakers’ mouth movement and facial expressions). To help learners improve word recognition and speech rhythm.
- Seleaf as a motion picture dictionary for individual learners.- languge usage and pragmatic use- bookmark function

4. Educational use: role-playing
A particular actors’ voice can be cut off so that students can work on role-playing exercise.

5. Experiment
Purpose: To measure the learning outcome of classroom training through Seleaf.
Method:- Second year Japanese college students (n=18) studied by Seleaf for 20 minutes every week for 4 months.- Pre and Post test were carried out using Standardized Test for English
Proficiency (STEP) semi-second level listening test (20 short conversations and monologues with multiple choice comprehension questions).

5. Experiment (2)
Results:- The average score increased from 14.5 to 16.3 (t(17)=2.11, p<0.01,
d=0.96).

5. Experiment (3)
- The relationships between Pre-and-post test results and study hours were analyzed.
- The diameter of a circle represents the total amount of study hours.
- A middle level correlation was found between the study hours and test score gains (r= .45).

5. Experiment (5): questionnaire (2)
- 16 Five-point Likert-scale questionnaires at the pre and the post tests.
- A significant increase in the questionnaire item “I’m listening while being aware of the sense group (chunks).” (+0.6 up; Z=1.92, p<0.05, r=0.45, Wilcoxon signed rank test).

6. Conclusion
- A training method where learners try to connect the sound and written scripts on the basis of breath groups may improve their overall listening comprehension,
- as well as increase their motivation of learning English through listening training.
