Voice interactive classroom, a service-oriented software architecture for speech-enabled learning

Software technology is creating a ubiquitous context for human living and learning in which new modes of interaction are gradually being incorporated. Speech-enabled software brings a new way of interacting with the Internet, but auditory access to web resources needs to be more broadly supported by software architectures. This paper introduces “Voice Interactive Classroom”, a software solution that proposes a middleware approach to provide cross-platform multi-channel access to internet-based learning.
