abbreviation CALL means Computer Assisted Language Learning. Recent years have shown an explosion of interest in using computers for language teaching and learning. The role of computers in language instruction has now become an important issue confronting large numbers of language teachers throughout the World. No doubt, computers make excellent teaching tools and computer technology has also contributed to language teaching and learning. Especially in teaching languages in any aspect, vocabulary

The effect of computer assisted language learning (CALL) program on learning vocabulary among EFL left and right hemispheric dominant learners.?European Online Journal of Natural and Social Sciences,?4(4), 761-777. The purpose of this study was to explore the use of Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) in the field of teaching and learning of a foreign language in Iran. This study examines two methods of vocabulary teaching/learning (CALL-based versus non-CALL based).
been studying how to use a computer on the educational side for many years. Previous English learners learnt English through a regular English class, an interesting and a fantastic English movie, an English newspaper, and etc. However, they were a lack of flexibility, and most of the learners memorized English vocabulary and grammar rules mechanically(Yang & Chen, 2007, p. 861).With the development of technology, at the end of 20th century, computer-assisted language learning(CALL) was widely used in
has widely affected every domain in human life in the last decades. Hence, using the computer has become an important tool in the teaching and learning process. It plays a remarkable role in learning and teaching English as a foreign language (EFL). Therefore, it is very important to prepare the new generations with the computers and its applications. Thus, the value of computer-assisted language learning (CALL) has been increased in the education. It has helped solve many problems of students
The research presented in this article seeks to determine if Computer-assisted language learning (CALL) will improve foreign language learning versus an in-class curriculum setting. A numerous amount of current research examines CALL and its impact on non-native English speakers learning English as a foreign language. However, this study will focus on expanding the research further through the examination of three different foreign languages, ranked from easiest to hardest, that will be studied by native
