Learning from the past, ClozeFox is a beautiful example of pedagogy-driven design as it responds to a huge need for interaction on authentic content '''without labor-intensive''' authoring. At the same time, it exploits affordances of Firefox extensions and related Web 2.0 tools for guaranteeing personalization, socialization, and scalability in terms of languages, parsing intelligence, exercise types, feedback, error analysis, remediation, and tracking & logging.

Language teachers worldwide are expected to encourage to use Mozilla Firefox in order to enrich their own learning environment with a powerful tool for autonomous and / or collaborative learning. ClozeFox can be seen as a first product in a series of tools for enhancing the (language) learning experience.
Language teachers worldwide are expected to encourage to use Mozilla Firefox in order to enrich their own learning environment with a powerful tool for autonomous and / or collaborative learning. Using ClozeFox, students will be able to exchange self-made exercises, store them in social collaborative repositories, moreover teachers can ask them to do so and monitor progress. ClozeFox can be seen as a first product in a series of tools for enhancing the (language) learning experience.

* A back-end web service so that much more sophisticated natural language processing routines can be handled for texts in various languages.  
* The capability to play the pronunciation (through sound synthesis / or file retrieval) and / or translation of the word to fill in or any word in context.
* User adaptability features: Again a back-end web service can store user's performance data and provide personalized suggestions and tests by performing statistical analysis of users, groups, etc.

* User adaptability features: Again a back-end web service can store user's performance data and provide personalized suggestions and tests by performing statistical analysis of users and user groups, their behavior, performance and error characteristics.
* And finally refactoring of the current source code for easier development, should the other open source developers take an interest to add more features to ClozeFox.
