Interest and
motivation.
(Classical language
teaching in
classroom can be
monotonous, boring,
and even
frustrating)
CALL is a program derived
from CAL
(Computer-Assisted Learning)
which is implemented to
language
Individualization
CALL allows
learners to
have
non-sequential
learning habit.
A compatible
learning style because
Students have
different style
Optimal use of learning time: The time
flexibility of using computer enables
students to choose appropriate timing
for learning.
Immediate feedback
Students receive maximum
benefit from feedback only
if it is given immediately.
Guided and repetitive practice
Students have freedom of
expression within certain bounds
that programmers create, such as
grammar, vocabulary, etc.
Lack of trained teachers: It is necessary for
teachers and students to have basic technology
knowledge before applying computer technology in
second language teaching and learning
Imperfect current CALL
programs: At present, the
software of CALL mainly
deals with reading,
listening, and writing skills.
Inability to handle
unexpected
situations The
learning situation
that a
second-language
learner faces are
various and ever
changing.
allowing students to
access the same material
over and over again and
offering immediate and non
judgmental feed-back every
time is ideal for mastering
a language
• providing whenever necessary
access to the same learning
material is essential to acquiring
a language
CALL in classroom as part of lesson development depends on the teachers
alone, on the way they use Internet resources
division in small sections
and well delimited of
content leads shortening
the matter, favouring those
students with analytic
thinking, but not those with
synthetic thinking;
• it offers the possibility of
realising a string of didactic
operations which are very
important for evaluation, and also
for developing students creativity
excessive individualization of learning can lead to denial of
the teacher – student dialogue and leads to the isolation of
the learning process from its psycho – social context.
