Purpose: This paper aims to present a lesson that showcases how artificial intelligence (AI) tools may be chiefly used in L2 language classrooms to design culture-focussed telecollaboration tasks and aid their completion by students. Design/methodology/approach: The paper begins by reviewing traditional approaches and guidance for developing…

In this study, a simplified strategy for the English assistance model was provided to overcome the limitations of current school English display settings and increase the scope of 5G innovation. This study uses a learning strategy based convolutional neural network (LS-CNN) to determine the execution of college English learning strategies. This…

The purpose of this article is to investigate how 5G and wireless communication technologies (5G+WCT) might be applied to English language classroom programs in higher education. The paper describes the complimentary roles of 5G and wireless communication technologies in English language teaching, includes student data collecting and…

Students often have difficulties in self-regulating their vocabulary learning in mobile-assisted language learning (MALL). Building on past studies of vocabulary learning, MALL, self-regulation, and personalised learning (PL), we propose a self-regulated, collaborative, personalised vocabulary (SCPV) learning approach in MALL. In this exploratory…

Although social networking apps and dictation-based automatic speech recognition (ASR) are now widely available in mobile phones, relatively little is known about whether and how these technological affordances can contribute to EFL pronunciation learning. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of feedback from peers and/or…

Although smartphones have become normalised in people's everyday behaviours, they remain under-exploited from a language learning perspective. This paper describes a study in an Irish university which explored the nature and extent of language learners' existing use of smartphones for informal learning purposes through a survey, a case study, and…

Teachers' perspectives are critical to the implementation of mobile-assisted language learning, particularly smartphone-assisted English language learning (SAELL), but have received scant scholarly attention. This study focuses on teachers' perspectives, examining their changing perceptions of and readiness for SAELL in the context of post-COVID…

The electronic schoolbag (eSchoolbag) is an enhanced one-to-one computing environment compatible with various digital devices. The eSchoolbag provides instructors with an intelligent teaching management system. It also offers students a highly interactive learning environment. However, findings of students' performance in the eSchoolbag…

This study examines students' self-initiated use of smartphones in multilingual writing classrooms in English-language programs at a U.S. university. Responding to calls for empirical research on materials use in second-language (L2) classrooms, researchers have focused on the roles of language learning and teaching materials in various L2…

The past decades have witnessed the spectacular development of English language as a principal lingua franca, used by millions of people all over the world. Without a doubt, the transition and acquisition of knowledge in all daily respects, from daily communication to academic disciplines, are more closely linked with the competence of English…

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…

The aim of this study is to create an activity by means of technology integration in the foreign language learning of primary school students. A quantitative research method was used in the study. The research was conducted in the fall semester of 2021-2022. A total of 248 voluntary primary school students who continued their education in…

This paper highlights the concept of constructivism that underpins the theory and practice of foreign language teaching. The dominance of this pedagogical movement in the second half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century has been particularly important for the study and understanding of digitally supported forms of learning.…

Mobile applications in smartphones have been used pervasively for various purposes, including language learning enhancement. Therefore, this study attempted to examine Thai EFL (English as a foreign language) learners' attitudes toward their use of mobile applications for language learning and to investigate significant differences regarding their…

Mobile phones are turning into a growingly widespread educational tool across various contexts. However, the scope of research on teachers' role in mobile-oriented instruction is limited, much less examining how professional development influences their associated beliefs and practices. Grounded in sociocultural theory, this study aimed to fill…
