Description
This overview of technology in language learning provides an introduction to computer-assisted language learning (CALL) for novice and experienced teachers alike. The module explores the most widely researched areas within CALL, including computer-mediated communication and technology-enhanced settings.
It examines findings on using CALL effectively, including teacher and learner standards, as well as how to find and evaluate suitable resources for specific instructional contexts. The book also introduces four of the newest and most exciting areas in CALL: gaming, fan fiction, digital storytelling, and mobile-assisted language learning.
