Bai, Barry; Wang, Jing; Chai, Ching-Sing – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2021
There has been an increasing concern on teachers' adoption of information and communication technology (ICT) in their teaching practices. However, little has been explored about English as a second language (ESL) teachers' ICT adoption. This study synthesizes the technology acceptance model (TAM), the value-expectancy theory, and a learning…

Lee, Cynthia – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2022
Human perceptions influence attitudes and intentions, and can predict actions. Despite the popular use of technology for English language teaching, and the association between learner factors and technology use, little is known about language learners' use of technology for personal and interpersonal learning activities, and whether there is a…

Ma, Qing – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2020
This study investigated how one type of learner-generated information and content, i.e. inter-group peer online feedback, provided on a wiki writing assignment for an English for Academic Purposes (EAP) course, could contribute to student L2 writing. Using a mixed method approach, more than 1000 entries of online peer comments were collected,…

Crosthwaite, Peter – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2017
An increasing number of studies have looked at the value of corpus-based data-driven learning (DDL) for second language (L2) written error correction, with generally positive results. However, a potential conundrum for language teachers involved in the process is how to provide feedback on students' written production for DDL. The study looks at…

Chen, Hao-Jan Howard – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2011
The development of adequate collocational knowledge is important for foreign language learners; nonetheless, learners often have difficulties in producing proper collocations in the target language. Among the various ways of learning collocations, the DDL (data-driven learning) approach encourages independent learning of collocations and allows…
