Different software programs have been
variously promoted as a virtual teacher,
an instrument, a teaching tool and a
learning tool.
3.
The degree to which they are effective
depends upon the environment at the
computer, the model of instruction for
the software, the learning and working
styles of the participants and others
factors.
4.
But at least an awareness of such issues
helps to set the agenda for future
research and development of CALL
learning materials.
5.
Software Objectives: An effective CALL
environment perhaps needs to offer
different interfaces or combinations of
interfaces to accommodate different
learning styles as appropriate to
different skills.
6.
Language teachers aim to increase
learner-centredness in activities in which
learners can be more closely involved in
the decision-making process of what is
taught and how it is taught.
7.
Making better use of existing materials.:
When a CALL program is not suitable,
learners and teachers might need to
examine ways in which it can be
adapted.
8.
An activity can be adding layers of tasks
to materials to make them challenging
or more appropiate to the user.
9.
Establising an environment where CALL
may take place: One of the challenges
to collaboration is the need to determine
the working process.
10.
The problem faced in most classroom is
how to isolate, or provide privacy, for an
individual student while allowing a group
of students the collaborative opportunity
to excitedly discuss and negotiate.
