Abstract
No technology carries an inherent, direct, measurable and generalizable effect on learning. Nor does speech technology. Its assumed added value is not a starting point for design, but a hypothesis resulting from design. Role and shape of speech technologies are simply logical and natural consequences of the specification of an optimal language learning environment for a specific context and for specific subconscious personal goals. These ecological and psychological paradigm shifts will be illustrated by a discussion of the design concept behind a project on pronunciation training. Challenges for CALL research on this topic will be briefly discussed.
