Computer-based learning materials differ from classroom practice in that they seldom explicitly offer opportunities for collaboration. Despite this, students do collaborate, helping one another through the content and affordances of computer materials. But, in doing so, students meet with challenges. Paradoxically, these challenges can either inspire or discourage learning and second-language acquisition. This paper, based on research with twenty Hong Kong university students in a controlled experiment, evaluates challenges to collaboration at the computer as evidenced by discourse. The students were videotaped and their discourse transcribed and evaluated both qualitatively and quantitatively, according to a set of discourse markers created to describe collaborative, non-collaborative and ambiguous strategies. The paper begins by exploring the differences between collaboration and similar terms such as teamwork and cooperative learning then goes on to define collaboration in the context of computer-assisted learning. It ends by presenting practical suggestions for software designers, teachers and students to enhance collaboration at the computer.

This chapter introduces a new paradigm of Web-based language learning, experimental Computer-Assisted Language Learning (eCALL) and its application in ESL and EFL grammar instruction. eCALL methods provide online training that complements classroom practice, while integrating second language acquisition theories and models. The authors introduce an eCALL tutor that teaches the correct use of the English article system. The authors examined the effectiveness of the tutor in an experimental study with 78 Chinese intermediate-advanced EFL learners. The tutor incorporated Bayesian knowledge tracing and provided individualized and adaptive training of English article usage. Learners' performance was measured by accuracy and response time. The results show that the tutor led to significant learning gains after three hours of tutor training, with gains retained two weeks later. The robust learning effects were documented by a significant improvement in accuracy and fluency of using the article.

Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) addresses the specific needs of second language learners and tutors in computer-based learning and training environments. While traditional CALL applications were mainly focused on narrowly defined and isolated solutions for vocabulary training, text manipulation, dialogue practice and grammar exercises, recent developments in multimedia telematics, involving the integration of multimedia processing and distance communication, have significantly increased the potential of computer technologies for the purposes of language learning and training.

This study investigated the effects of comprehension-directed and memory-directed computer-based learning-strategy training on the achievement of learning objectives. The subjects were sixty undergraduate students enrolled in an introductory computing course. Learners completed a tutorial about microcomputer components on the first day of the study. Two treatment groups completed a strategy-training tutorial focusing on comprehension or memory. The control group received extra time on the microcomputer-components tutorial and no strategy training. One week later, all subjects completed two separately administered tests including cued recall and recognition. The strategy training effects were significant on the fifty-item cued recall test, however, group mean scores were at or below 50 percent. Group mean scores on a recognition text suggested that comprehension-directed training was the most effective. All treatment group mean scores were significantly higher than the control group. The findings of this study provide a basis for further research into the design of computer-based learning-strategy training and assessment.

The purpose of this review paper is to explore and learn boundlessly about computer-assisted education, and its impact on students and their academic success. Computer-assisted learning provides academics with various teaching information and multimedia platforms for easy learning of students. It interprets the innovation of computer-assisted education and its success in today’s era. Computer-aided education signifies the integrated approach of the computer and its devices. Nevertheless, it does not mean online learning will eventually replace traditional education and teachers, rather teachers using computer-based platforms, and their applications to teaching, like smart classes, videos, and web tutoring with improved resources and reduced teacher workloads. By which, students can arrive, grasp, and engage themselves at their own pace in a co-relational environment. Moreover, in the situation of a pandemic like this, we all are choosing computer-assisted education. Therefore, without computer-facilitated education today, it would have been merely impossible for us to study, and attain education. The world has widely opened and accepted the new technology of computer-assisted education. This paper is done to distinguish the success of computer-assisted education

Fossilization in second language acquisition is generally defined as a discrepancy between the foreign language learner’s usage of a structure or form and what is considered “correct” in the target language. Second language theory and research generally support the notion that classroom instruction can reduce and, even prevent, fossilization. However, a small body of research suggests that not all classroom instruction may effectively prevent fossilization and some may even promote it. The authors examine research about the relationship between fossilization and classroom practice, then look at the effects classroom practice may have on fossilization, focusing on the role of input. Next they consider the question: How likely are fossilized forms to be ignored or even promoted in a classroom with a teacher who is a non-native speaker of the target language? Anecdotal evidence collected from observations of classroom teachers and students of English in Albania highlights some errors which are fossilized. The study demonstrates that the Albanian context plays a role in several significant ways. Until the early 1990s most Albanian teachers of English had little or no direct contact with native English speakers nor with authentic listening and reading materials. This trend is changing, but there is still a tendency among Albanian teachers to repeat the incorrect forms which were taught to them by their teachers of English. The authors explore a few common errors and suggest some changes to classroom practice to help teachers and their students overcome fossilization using appropriate input, by first recognizing fossilized forms, then revising their output to correct forms.
