Abstract(in English) Introducing robots into language learning systems is effective, especially in motivating learners to engage in learning and allowing the learners to talk in a more realistic conversational environment. The joining-in-type robot-assisted language learning (JIT-RALL) system uses two robots (one as a teacher and one as a co-learner) to simulate a multi-party conversation, which can increase learning effects. However, previous JIT-RALL had single training tasks and a fixed process. In order to further increase learning effects, we introduced the well-ordered system approach from second language acquisition theory and proposed a multi-task training with JIT-RALL system. In this paper, we compared the learning effects of learners who participated in the previous single-task JIT-RALL system with those who participated in our proposed multi-task training with JIT-RALL system. We found that the learning effects of the learners who participated in our multi-task RALL system increased by 0.20 points.
