The evolvement of communication and information technologies provides opportunities for a wide variety of new and innovative approaches to teaching and learning. The purpose of the research is to create a multimedia web-based language courseware for Chinese and pronunciation
as an alternative to conventional teaching aided tools (videocassettes, audio tapes, flash cards etc).
The application is developed on a web-based basis to fulfill the requirement of being able to be delivered to any computer connected to the Internet anywhere in the world. Furthermore, the application embraces the multimedia elements such as text, graphic, animation and audio to create a better mental picture for learners and enable them to learn Chinese in an interactive environment. To achieve this, a system of the application has been developed using prototyping method. Finally, this research discusses some limitations and constraints that
were discovered during the development of ihe application and proposes some recommendations to overcome the limitations for the future development of this research.
