TEXT II

Affordances and limitations of technology: Voices from EFL teachers and learners.

(Mohammad Amiryousefi)

Abstract

1---With the developments of new technologies appearing very quickly, the attention has been focused more on

2---technology than learning. English centers and institutes have mostly been busy accommodating new programs

3---and technologies and hence have not spent enough time to evaluate the CALL (Computer Assisted Language

4---Learning) programs and technologies employed to find their affordances and limitations. The present study

5---was an attempt to study the perceptions and evaluation of the Iranian EFL learners and teachers about CALL.

6---To this end, 240 students and teachers of two big institutes in Iran where CALL is used in their English

7---learning program participated in the study. The required data were collected through a mixed-method design.

8---The results of data analysis showed that CALL can enhance language learning and English listening, reading,

9---and writing skills. It can also increase students' motivation and interest in learning and their exposure to

10--language. However, it cannot improve speaking skill well. It also causes technology addiction, lacks good

11--standards and an interactive nature necessary for the development of communicative proficiency, and may

12--give the confidence to the teachers that everything is prepared by CALL courseware designers and hence they

13--may come unprepared. The present study argues that the mere focus on technological support is not adequate,

14--and a pedagogical understanding of language teachers’ and learners’ new roles and identities in CALL

15--environment should be developed.

Keywords:
