Teaching & Researching: Computer-Assisted Language Learning: Applied Linguistics in Action
Autor Ken Beattyen Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 noi 2015
Computers play a crucial and rapidly evolving role in education, particularly in the area of language learning. Far from being a tool mimicking a textbook or teacher, Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) has the power to transform language learning through the pioneering application of innovative research and practices.
Technological innovation creates opportunities to revisit old ideas, conduct new research and challenge established beliefs, meaning that the field is constantly undergoing change. This fully revised second edition brings teachers and researchers up-to-date by offering:
- A comprehensive overview of CALL and current research issues
- Step-by-step instructions on conducting research projects in CALL
- Extensive resources in the form of contacts, websites and free software references
- A glossary of terms related to CALL

Descriere
Computers increasingly play an important role in education, particularly language learning. But Computer-assisted Language Learning (CALL) is constantly undergoing change because of technological advances that create opportunities to revisit old ideas, to conduct new research and to challenge established beliefs about the ways in which teaching and learning can be carried out both with and without a human teacher. This book offers teachers and researchers a better understanding of CALL through:
- A comprehensive overview of CALL, fully updated to take into account the Web 2.0 revolution
- Step-by-step instructions on conducting research projects in CALL
- Extensive resources in the form of contacts, websites and free software references
- A glossary of terms related to CALL
