Jiarui Hou; James F. Lee; Stephen Doherty – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2024
Previous reading research on incidental word learning as product and process has largely employed computer- or paper-based delivery methods. The present study uses a novel combination of offline and online measures to examine the effects of mobile media (mobile phone and tablet) compared to traditional media (paper and computer) on incidental L2…

Chengyuan Jia; Khe Foon Hew; Mingting Li – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2025
Listening is a major challenge for many English-as-a-foreign language (EFL) learners. Decoding training, which helps learners develop the ability to recognize words from speech, is frequently used to assist EFL learners. Although recent empirical studies on decoding training have provided positive evidence on its effectiveness in improving EFL…

Boning Lyu; Chun Lai – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2024
Studies have explored how second language (L2) learners engage with peer feedback in instructional contexts. However, how learners engage in self-initiated and self-directed feedback practices beyond the classroom in online spaces is largely unknown. Informed by an ecological perspective, an in-depth exploration of the dynamics and underpinning…

Curran, Nathaniel Ming – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2023
This article considers how language learners conceptualize their ideal teacher within the context of gig economy language platforms (GELPs). GELPs differ significantly from traditional language learning in that their users are able to change between teachers easily and also select teachers according to a far wider range of criteria than is…

Han, Chao; Lu, Xiaolei – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2023
The use of translation and interpreting (T&I) in the language learning classroom is commonplace, serving various pedagogical and assessment purposes. Previous utilization of T&I exercises is driven largely by their potential to enhance language learning, whereas the latest trend has begun to underscore T&I as a crucial skill to be…

Wang, Chien-pang; Lan, Yu-Ju; Tseng, Wen-Ta; Lin, Yen-Ting R.; Gupta, Kao Chia-Ling – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2020
The 3D virtual worlds (3DVWs) were widely used for language learning in the past two decades. Although numerous research studies acknowledged the affordance, a full-scale investigation that discussed how they can be applied to language learning with substantial evidence of effect sizes were not presented. Thus, this analysis aimed to synthesize…
