This study determines the effects of the application of multimedia technology -Computer-Assisted language learning (CALL) in the development of five language skills using ‘English Discoveries’. It shows that the effects of multimedia materials for language learning are not necessarily better as a whole, but different from those obtained in traditional classroom work. Only two of the five variables showed significant differences in favor of the use of Multimedia: pronunciation and oral production. However, grammar showed opposite results. The teachers’ and students’ reactions suggest the need to adapt their roles to the new context in the future use of CALL and multimedia. The high level of acceptance of this type of materials by the students shows the need for more research and better adaptation of activities to the new context.

AbstractThe paper examines the application of computer assisted language learning (CALL) in English language classes in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The research was designed as an empirical examination of the attitudes of teachers and students on the successful application of computer assisted language learning in English language classrooms in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Lack of motivation is one the problems that most teachers are faced with. There are many causes of poor motivation, but one of them is certainly the unattractiveness and dullness of traditional methods, teaching materials and resources. However, many authors with educational experience point out that the use of information technology can positively influence students’ motivation and encourage them to work actively. While adults, as digital immigrants, might not use modern information technology excessively, children and teens are true digital natives, who have grown up with the latest technologies and use them with great pleasure in all aspects of their lives adapting them to their needs (Prensky, 2001). The results obtained in this research are an indicator of the current attitude of teachers and students towards these issues, but they also highlight some important necessary reforms in the field of teacher education.

This study aims to determine the perceptions of students as prospective teachers of Schoology in Computer Assisted Language Learning subjects.  Schoology is a web-based learning media commonly called the Learning Management System. Schoology is one of the free web platform in the form of social web and easy to use like Facebook. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method and approach with data collection methods in the form of interviews. The interviewer interviewed nine informants, sixth semester students in Computer Assisted Language Learning subjects with a Schoolgy discussion. Informants acted as instructors in their groups randomly selected. The results of the interview show that all informants already know the schoology and its features. Informants will also use schoology when they become teachers. The obstacle faced by 44% of students is when making material in the form of quizzes. They usually forget to arrange the quiz so the quiz does not appear on the student account. Another obstacle is to download the value and print it. But overall the students' perceptions of schoology in Assisted Language Learning courses are good. This research will be developed at the school level, Schoology in the view of teachers and students.
