Loewen, Shawn; Crowther, Dustin; Isbell, Daniel R.; Kim, Kathy Minhye; Maloney, Jeffrey; Miller, Zachary F.; Rawal, Hima – ReCALL, 2019
The growing availability of mobile technologies has contributed to an increase in mobile-assisted language learning in which learners can autonomously study a second language (L2) anytime or anywhere (e.g. Kukulska-Hulme, Lee & Norris, 2017; Reinders & Benson, 2017). Research investigating the effectiveness of such study for L2 learning,…
