Wehner, Amy K.; Gump, Andrew W.; Downey, Steve – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2011
Virtual worlds are an emerging technology in computer-assisted learning. Due to the novelty of these new learning spaces, little research has been done on the use or the effects on students learning foreign languages. This research looks at how the use of the virtual world Second Life affects the motivation of students in an undergraduate Spanish…
