Robotics education and robot-embedded learning have become focal points in recent interdisciplinary and innovative education. Despite the identified opportunities, there are still limitations and considerations before integrating educational robotics into foreign language education on a large scale. This survey investigates foreign language…

The purpose of this dissertation was to understand and compare the effect of training non-native English Speaking (NNES) learners (N = 480) in two distinct learning environments, (i) traditional face-to-face and (ii) online synchronous hybrid learning (SHL). In the traditional training mode, NNES learners (n = 360) were trained by NNES voice and…

The TESOL Technology Standards were developed for language teachers to better understand how to use technology appropriately. This article explores the following questions: (1) After 10 years since its publication, are the TESOL Technology Standards for Language Teachers (2011) still applicable to the current educational context? and (2) What…

Educational technology (ET) can reportedly provide innovative resources to improve the language learning process. However, few studies have elaborated on the use of ET for language teacher education and professional development. To shed light on the reported challenges and affordances of digital technology in language teacher education and…

The majority of studies on second/foreign language teacher identity have explored the face-to-face environment compared to the technology-assisted language learning (TALL) environment. The paucity of research despite the significance of teacher identity served as the rationale to conduct a systematic review. Scopus and Web of Science indexed…

While previous studies have established the significance of CALL (Computer-Assisted Language Learning) in language education, the extent to which CALL influences language teachers' well-being and their professional development has not yet been fully understood. This echoes Dörnyei's (2018) argument that although language teachers are the most…

The importance of artificial intelligence (AI) in second/foreign language (L2) education has recently captured the attention of several scholars. However, the current scope of literature lacks a cross-cultural investigation into teachers' AI-readiness. To bridge the gap, this study employed a semi-structured interview to unveil the perceptions of…

The purpose of this study was to explore native-language teachers' efforts in technology-rich classrooms. The advancement of classroom technology and educational policies in Taiwan prompted native-language teachers to leverage technology that improved learning and instruction in native languages. Fifteen senior teachers participated in in-depth…

Digital Language Teaching 5.0, a new language teaching paradigm that applies the digital pedagogies and technologies of the fifth Industrial Revolution (Industry 5.0), is expected to transform the English language teaching and learning landscape soon, as the world continuously seeks innovative solutions to the educational challenges brought by the…

Educational technology has evolved tremendously over the past fifty years. Computer- and mobile-assisted tools have enabled language learning to take place anytime and anyplace. This paper examines the effectiveness of computer/mobile-assisted language learning (C/MALL) by reviewing findings as reported in the literature and by discussing benefits…

This study was conducted to examine the effects of training in Information Communication Technology-assisted (ICT-assisted) English language teaching on secondary school English language teachers' pedagogical knowledge and English language proficiency. To achieve this goal, a one-group within-subject quasi-experimental design was utilized.…

This investigation utilized a phenomenological approach to investigate the experience of English language educators in employing artificial intelligence (AI) tools into English language learning. The study used purposive sampling and 20 participants were interviewed. The data analysis was guided by Bronfenbrenner's (1979) ecological systems…

This article presents a discussion and analysis on the implementation of social networks to support the learning of a second language (L2) in the field of Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL); an area that has regained especial significance in the post pandemic era. Through a cumulative case study report that compares and contrasts several…

To understand in-service language teachers' intrinsic barriers to technology integration in higher education contexts, this in-depth study investigated four teachers teaching Chinese as a foreign language (CFL) at a private university in Japan. The researcher trained the four teachers with varied digital literacy how to create and utilise online…

Current research on computer-assisted language learning (CALL) teacher education shows a need to shift the focus away from a technocentric emphasis on specific technologies to strategies for technology integration (Chapelle & Sauro, 2017). The main reason for this is to prepare teachers to be flexible enough to use current and future…
