1. What is CALL?
the area of technology and second language teaching and learning despite the fact that revisions for the term are suggested regularly (Chapelle, 2001, p. 3)
the search for and study of applications of the computer in language teaching and learning (Levy, 1997, p.1)

1. What is CALL?
any process in which a learner uses a
computer and, as a result, improves his or
her language (Beatty, 2003, p. 7)
issues of materials design, technologies,
pedagogical theories and modes of
instruction (Beatty, 2003, pp. 7-8)

2. Types of CALL Programs
CALL-specific software: applications designed to develop and facilitate language learning, such as CD-ROMs, web-based interactive language learning exercises/quizzes

2. Types of CALL Programs Generic software: applications designed
for general purposes, such as - word-processors (Word), - presentation software (PowerPoint), and - spreadsheet (Excel), that can be used to support language learning

2. Types of CALL Programs Web-based learning programs: online dictionaries,online encyclopedias,online concordancers,news/magazine sites,e-texts,web-quests,web publishing, blog, wiki, etc

4. What computers can “do”?
What computers can and can’t do in language teaching and learning?
1403/05/2023
4. What computers can “do”?
Judge predetermined right-or-wrong answers, e.g., multiple choice and fill-in-the-blanks
Judge unexpected input
CAN CAN’T

4. What computers can “do”?
Provide immediate, yet fixed, feedback, suggestions, and encouragement
Provide individualized feedback beyond a predetermined list of messages
CAN CAN’T

4. What computers can “do”?
Provide authentic information through multimedia - texts, images, sounds, videos, and animations
Engage learner in rich negotiation of meaning characteristic of face-to-face interaction
CAN CAN’T

4. What computers can “do”?
Motivate task persistence
•Record learner’s writing, speech, and learning progress
Motivate depth and quality of engagement characteristic of human interaction
CAN CAN’T

5. Roles of the Computer in language learning and teaching
computer as tutor for language drills or skill practice
computer as a tool for writing, presenting, and researching
computer as a medium of global communication

6. The development of CALL – from the pedagogical perspective
Structural / Behavioristic CALL (1960s -1970s)
Communicative / Cognitive CALL (1980s -1990s)
Integrative / Sociocognitive / Socioconstructive CALL (1990s -present)

7. How Computers can be used in the Language Class?
1) Teaching with one computer in the class
2) Teaching in the computer network room (network-based language teaching)
3) Self-access learning (independent learning)
4) Distance learning

7. How Computers can be used in the Language Class?
1) Teaching with one computer in the class
delivery of content (PowerPoint, word-processor, Webpages, etc.)
classroom activities/discussions mediated by the computer
Interactive whiteboard

8. Principles of Using and Designing CALL Programs student/learner-centeredness (to promote learner
autonomy) meaningful purpose comprehensive input sufficient level of stimulation multiple modalities (to support various learning styles
and strategies) high level of interaction (human-machine and human-
human)
