This study draws on an ecological perspective on teacher agency to examine the role of the situated learning CALL environment in developing EFL student-teachers' agency. The data were collected from eight student-teachers' autobiographical narratives and the recoded class discussions. The deductive thematic analysis of the data showed that…

Robotics education and robot-embedded learning have become focal points in recent interdisciplinary and innovative education. Despite the identified opportunities, there are still limitations and considerations before integrating educational robotics into foreign language education on a large scale. This survey investigates foreign language…

Background: This study investigates the effects of higher and lower-level text processing strategies on both higher and lower-level processing skills and cognitive load using the computer-assisted interactive reading model (CAIRM) as the educational intervention framework. Objectives: The objectives of this study are to examine the effects of the…

The burgeoning interest in integrating technology into language education has necessitated language teachers to enhance their competencies and literacies. Consequently, a pressing need arises for a framework tailored to meet teachers' evolving requirements. To address this imperative, I conducted two studies within two distinct teaching contexts.…

The importance of artificial intelligence (AI) in second/foreign language (L2) education has recently captured the attention of several scholars. However, the current scope of literature lacks a cross-cultural investigation into teachers' AI-readiness. To bridge the gap, this study employed a semi-structured interview to unveil the perceptions of…

As emerging technologies rapidly evolve, language teachers in the 21st century face an increasing challenge in determining how to integrate them into their language classrooms. The existing literature emphasises that a crucial element for successful technology integration is for teachers to hold sufficient proficiency in technology and adopt…

The purpose of this study was to explore native-language teachers' efforts in technology-rich classrooms. The advancement of classroom technology and educational policies in Taiwan prompted native-language teachers to leverage technology that improved learning and instruction in native languages. Fifteen senior teachers participated in in-depth…

This study investigates the effectiveness of implementing a flipped classroom strategy/model in teaching a Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) course to senior EFL student teachers. Characterized by pre-class online content delivery and in-person interactive activities, the flipped classroom strategy was explored in terms of its impact on…

From the complex dynamic systems theory perspective, evaluating CALL pedagogy involves miscellaneous variables. It seems the ecosystem of the CALL environment necessitates an array of extralinguistic (Ecolinguistically situated) issues to be considered in any appraisal of the CALL milieu. To this end, this paper aims to develop and validate a…

This study explored the mobile language learning experiences that Taiwanese high school English language teachers created. A total of 119 valid mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) lesson plans from 36 senior high schools in the national mobile learning (m-learning) programme in Taiwan were analysed via content analysis. The results showed…

Teachers' perspectives are critical to the implementation of mobile-assisted language learning, particularly smartphone-assisted English language learning (SAELL), but have received scant scholarly attention. This study focuses on teachers' perspectives, examining their changing perceptions of and readiness for SAELL in the context of post-COVID…

The integration of computer-assisted language learning (CALL) has held increasing interest among the community over the last three decades. One paper which has taken stock of this interest and modelled the factors that impact integration has been written by Hong (2010). While Hong's model has significantly contributed to understanding technology…

Teacher beliefs have received substantial attention particularly in Chinese as a world language context due to the Chinese language proficiency challenges, Chinese character complexity, and cultural barriers. With the development of cutting-edge technology, Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) has played a pivotal role in Chinese language…

As a consequence of the COVID-19 outbreak, Thai EFL teachers have been assigned to change their teaching platform from traditional face-to-face to online classes during lockdown periods. In light of this change, the study attempts to explore the teachers' views and their implementation of the CLT approach in online education in consideration of…

This study investigates the impact of AI-assisted language learning (AIAL) strategies on cognitive load and learning outcomes in the context of language acquisition. Specifically, the study explores three distinct AIAL strategies: personalized feedback and adaptive learning, interactive exercises with speech recognition, and intelligent tutoring…
