The Handbook of Technology and Second Language Teaching and Learning / Edition 1

by Carol A. Chapelle, Shannon Sauro

Overview

The Handbook of Technology and Second Language Teaching and Learning presents a comprehensive exploration of the impact of technology on the field of second language learning.

The rapidly evolving language-technology interface has propelled dramatic changes in, and increased opportunities for, second language teaching and learning.  Its influence has been felt no less keenly in the approaches and methods of assessing learners' language and researching language teaching and learning.

Contributions from a team of international scholars make up the Handbook consisting of four parts: language teaching and learning through technology; the technology-pedagogy interface; technology for L2 assessment; and research and development of technology for language learning. It considers how technology assists in all areas of language development, the emergence of pedagogy at the intersection of language and technology, technology in language assessment, and major research issues in research and development of technologies for language learning. It covers all aspects of language including grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, listening, speaking, pragmatics, and intercultural learning, as well as new pedagogical and assessment approaches, and new ways of conceiving and conducting research and development. 

The Handbook of Technology and Second Language Teaching and Learning demonstrates the extensive, multifaceted implications of technology for language teachers, learners, materials-developers, and researchers.

What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

"I cannot imagine a more comprehensive overview of the role of technology in teaching and learnign second and foreign languages. In this volume, some of the best writers in the field provide us with the state of the art as well as insights into how the different areas of research and practice are likely to develop in the future. I imagine this will be of great interest to newcomers in the field, as well as seasoned researchers." - Robert O'Dowd, Associate Professor, Universidad de Leon, Spain

"Covering all the major aspects of CALL research from a variety of perspectives, this Handbook is a must-read for all researchers who want to keep abreast of the domain." - Nicholas Guichon, Professor at Universite Lyon 2, Laboratoire ICAR, France

“Featuring accessible writing styles, authentic references, comprehensive overviews, enlightening pedagogical commentary, elaborate theoretical elucidation, and critical evaluation, The handbook of technology and second language teaching and learning is a truly valuable reference work not only for SLA researchers and language teachers, but also for undergraduates and postgraduates involved in SLA research.”

“The greatest strength of the handbook lies in the strong integration and cross-fertilization between theories and practice. SLA-centered theoretical frameworks, together with technology-assisted teaching modes, are often tested in the classroom, and understanding of classroom language and behavior can feed into the betterment of technologies and the advancement of theoretical notions. The synergy between technologies of various kinds and SLA in different cultures and nations is fully demonstrated and examined.”

Editorial Reviews

Modern tools and applications are discussed throughout the book in terms of their effects on language learning and instruction, which can guide novice and experienced teachers and researchers in the field. Articulated by some of the best scholars in the assessment field, the volume is, thus, a valuable source of contemporary theory, research, applications, and ideas about using technology for language learning.” - LINGUIST List 29.4114
