Abstract
The purpose of this investigation was to examine projects in computer-assisted language learning (CALL) to seek answers to fundamental design and implementation questions. Three research questions were isolated: (1) what aspects of language and language learning can computer technology best address, (2) what roles can computers play in language and language learning, and (3) what are examples of conditions favourable to the integration of computer use into the language classroom environment? Two kinds of data were acquired. The first type of information was obtained from articles reporting on CALL projects. The second was collected by sending a questionnaire to key personnel in the major CALL projects in Canada, the U.S.A. and Britain. The data obtained was categorized, described, and discussed according to issues pertinent to the research questions. Findings of the study led to the formation of a number of provisional hypotheses. Based on the findings, four recommendations were made.
