Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The exponential growth and development of modern technologies in all sectors has made it increasingly difficult for students, teachers, and teacher educators to know which technologies to employ and how best to take advantage of them.

The Routledge Handbook of Language Learning and Technology brings together experts in a number of key areas of development and change, and opens the field of language learning by exploring the pedagogical importance of technological innovation. The handbook is structured around six themes:

  • Historical and conceptual contexts
  • Core issues
  • Interactive and collaborative technologies for language learning
  • Corpora and data-driven learning
  • Gaming and language learning
  • Purpose-designed language learning resources

Led by fundamental concepts, theories, and frameworks from language learning and teaching research rather than by specific technologies, this handbook is the essential reference for all students, teachers, and researchers of Language Learning and TESOL. Those working in the areas of Applied Linguistics, Education, and Media Studies will also find this a valuable book.
