Nouf J. Aljohani – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2025
This paper proposes an updated framework for the evaluation of the computer-assisted language learning (CALL) framework, further developed from Chapelle (2001) and González-Lloret and Ortega (2014). Based on a review of prominent previous CALL evaluation frameworks, an exploration of relevant literature in formal evaluation and my own first-hand…

Leahy, C. – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2008
This paper briefly discusses different research approaches in CALL and makes a case for applying grounded theory (GT) to data gathered from an electronic role-play conducted in L2. The article shows that this method can help gain a better understanding of what learners do when engaged in the task. Through the process of open coding, four…

Schulze, Mathias; Penner, Nikolai – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2008
The choice of grammatical framework in ICALL--the branch of CALL that applies artificial intelligence techniques--has important implications for both research and development. Matthews (1993) argued for one "that potentially meshes with SLA (second language acquisition)" (p. 5) and sketches three criteria that facilitate the crucial…

Ruhlmann, F. – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 1998
Based on the results of a research and development project that was funded by the European Commission. Findings from previous research were synthesized into an innovative method that seeks to combine instructional and constructivist approaches in a single application. The integrated method applied in the design of the "PEC" (Procedures and…

Cushion, Steve – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2005
Over the last 5 years we have developed, produced, tested, and evaluated an authoring software package to produce web-based, interactive, audio-enhanced language-learning material. That authoring package has been used to produce language-learning material in French, Spanish, German, Arabic, and Tamil. We are currently working on increasing…

Decoo, Wilfried; And Others – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 1996
Describes various projects of the Didascalia computer-assisted language-learning research center, reflecting major steps in the development of the center and illustrating facets of the prevailing bottom-up approach: from the general lexical programs towards the more contextualized, to the company specific, to the language testing programs. (15…
