Abstract(in English) It is necessary to support Japanese EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners to be active to study English conversation for globalization. We developed English Conversation Learning System using lifelog for Japanese EFL learners. The system is based on heuristic model of variables influencing "Willing to Communicate" by Maclntyre, with "interactive English conversation", "topics based on interests and life of learners", and "application with which learners can use anywhere and anytime". The result of experiments showed that the system couldn't offer appropriate conversation topics using lifelog, however "interactive English Conversation" style worked well to make learners feel relaxed and speak fluently.
