Although the target structures are Japanese honorifics, the results should interest anyone concerned with computer-assisted language instruction (CALI) and the role of input and output practice in second language acquisition.
The relative effectiveness of input and output practice in second language acquisition may depend on the types of target structures, as suggested by DeKeyser and Sokalski (1996), and on the kinds of tasks the students are required to perform.
This type of computer program may be efficient for teaching complex grammar and developing the learner's grammatical competence.

 The Phoenix Online - Lure and pressure of honors strong
When the college eliminated honorific distinctions in course and revamped the honors program in 1996, the percentage of graduates in the honors program more than doubled — from 10.2 percent to 21.8 percent — the next year, according to the Office of Institutional Research.
The program is the only way one can graduate with honorifics, and this fact is not lost upon students when they contemplate whether to do honors.
Moreover, he added, it is the only means worthy of a graduation honor.

Kathol's (1997) analysis of the morphology- syntax interface and the agreement relationship, on which much of this paper is based, is particularly well suited to languages such as Russian and Czech which have a great deal of morphology.
The nature of the agreement relationship can be captured by expressing cognitive motivations within a formal theory of grammar (Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar, or HPSG).

Japanese honorifics are things often ignored, but extremely important.

You could reasonably argue that dropping honorifics where no equivalent exists falls within the definition of translating, which is to "represent" what is said in one language in another language while taking the second language's cultural milieu into account.
