2. COMPUTER-ASSISTED
LEARNING
 Computer-assisted
language learning (CALL)
is succinctly defined in a
seminal work by Levy
(1997: p. 1) as "the
search for and study of
applications of the
computer in language
teaching and learning".

3.  PURPOSE :-
 To assess the teaching
process
 To review and reinforce
 To promote foundation
mastery
 To promote remediation
 To motivational environment

4. TYPES OF CAL SOFTWARE
 Drill and practice
 Simulation
 Tutorials
 Controlled learning
 Games

5.  Drill and practice is
good for
fundamental
mastery.

6. SIMULATION
 This has proved quite
useful in learning
problem-solving ,the
highest cognitive
domain.

7. 
TUTORIAL
 Presentation of the
content in a structured
way and instant feedback
and reinforcement to the
learner.
 This mode ,if used well
,could result in 90%
retention of the content
(compare with 30%
retention after the best
lecture).

8. CONTROLLED LEARNING
 It provides a course of
study in an instructional
sequence on the pattern
of branching program

9.  TRADITIONAL
TEACHING
 A single teacher
giving lectures to
a group of
students who are
expected to use
their notes and
textbook to
prepare for
periodic
examinations.

10. CAL TEACHING
 Teacher Independent
 Reduce work load
 Time saving
 Active learner
 Advance


11.  ADVANTAGES
 Reduced the work load of
teaching.
 Improve motivation
 Reach the large audience
 Multiple dimensional learning
 Promote interactive learning.
 Builds confidence among
students.
 Provide immediate feedback.

12.  DISADVANTAGES
 It is a mechanical approach.
 Mental and physical fatigue.
 It is vary expensive.
 None effective for some
applications(e.g. reasoning)
 Lack of infrastructure
 Lack of knowledge
 Lack of computer literacy.

13.  EXAMPLES OF TOOLS
 Spreadsheet program
 Statistic packages
 Hypermedia software
 Desktop publishing software
 Presentation software
 CAD software
 etc.
