In the five years since the first edition, the field of CALL has advanced and new technologies now offer even more opportunities for language educators and students, and researchers have expanded our understanding of what it means to teach and learn with technology. This updated edition is revised both in terms of organization and content. There are chapters centered around the ACTFL Standards' 5 Cs, and also updated chapters on original topics such as an overview of technology and CALL, the connection between CALL and theories of second language acquisition and pedagogy, courseware evaluation, assessment, and pronunciation.

Integrates theory, research, and practice on the learning of second and foreign languages as informed by sociocultural and activity theory. It familiarizes students, teachers, and other researchers who do not work within the theory with its principal claims and constructs in particular as they relate to second language research. The book also describes and illustrates the use of activity theory to support practical and conceptual innovations in second language education.
