Computers and English Language Learning Author:John Higgins These papers on Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) and EFL were originally printed in a variety of publications; they have been updated to take account of their new context in this collection. The topics include computer and grammar teaching, authentic labour and authentic play, integrating computers with foreign language classwork, eval... more »uating CALL, whether teachers should learn to program, and learning and exercise. This work provides an insight into the development of English-language teaching in an open fashion and reflects 20 years of research. The papers on CALL range from general issues to more specific "linguistic gadgetry". These are followed by papers about language and a final section which deals with classroom methods, unsupported by technology. The diversity of general and specific topics covered allows for some diversions, including 555 paraphrases of "Jim hated school because the teachers were unkind".« less
