Chu, Hui-Chun; Wang, Chun-Chieh; Wang, Lin – Educational Technology & Society, 2019
EFL (English as a foreign language) students usually learn by rote when they study English grammar. They usually memorize all the grammar rules mechanically instead of learning grammar in a structured way. Researchers have suggested that students can internalize knowledge via using knowledge construction tools and collaborated learning activities.…
