+ClozeFox is a Firefox extension for language learning purposes which generates fill-in and multiple choice exercises (cloze tests) on-the-fly from authentic pages on the Web. A language learner can easily turn an online authentic text into an interactive, meaningful and useful exercise by using ClozeFox. ClozeFox will allows language teachers to direct their students to selected and suitable web pages that turn into tailor-made exercises.
+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.
