دانلود کتاب Context-Specific Computer-Assisted Language Learning: Research, Development and Practice

This book is an examination of contemporary topics of computer-assisted
language learning (CALL) research, development and practice. It explores
several different dimensions of CALL while looking at the ever-changing faces
of CALL in different contexts. Topics covered in the book include teacher
capacity building, learner training, massive open online courses, mobile learning,
grammar instruction, process writing and peer evaluation. The book draws on
context-specific studies and activities conducted by CALL researchers and
practitioners and provides a valuable resource for postgraduate students,
language teachers, teacher educators and researchers.

The book includes seven chapters anonymously peer-reviewed by independent
reviewers and divided into three sections: research (Chapters 1-5), development
(Chapter 6) and practice (Chapter 7). Chapter 1 examines the use of a learning
management system (LMS) in a teacher capacity building initiative for blended
learning sustainability. Chapter 2 looks into the implementation of learner
training in CALL for a special target group. Chapter 3 explores connectivist
massive open online courses (cMOOCs), flipped classrooms and conventional
classrooms. Chapter 4 investigates English as a foreign language (EFL) learners’
engagement, interaction and autonomy on a social networking site. Chapter 5
deals with different types of signalling in online grammar instruction. Chapter 6
discusses the instructional design of technology-enhanced process writing with
sample activities. Finally, Chapter 7 presents a mobile peer evaluation system for
in-class presentations. Each chapter finishes with four questions for further
discussion and investigation.

As the fourth volume of the Asia-Pacific Association for Computer-Assisted
Language Learning (APACALL) Book Series, the book presents the findings and
outcomes of recent work in the field of CALL and offers opportunities for readers
to engage in meaningful discussions on the use of technology for language
learning and teaching in the digital age. A collaborative effort has been made
again in publishing this refereed volume. I would like to thank all authors whose
work appears in the book and all reviewers of submitted manuscripts. My thanks
also go to my family for their love and support.
