Multimedia learning materials

This paper describes the integration of multimedia documents in the Portuguese version of REAP, a tutoring system for vocabulary learning. The documents result from the pipeline processing of Broadcast News videos that automatically segments the audio files, transcribes them, adds punctuation and capitalization, and breaks them into stories classified by topics. The integration of these materials in REAP was done in a way that tries to decrease the impact of potential errors of the automatic chain in the learning process.
