Computer-assisted vocabulary learning

Jeremy Fox

This article1looks at some examples of Computer-Assisted Learning (CAL) used for vocabulary learning. Two approaches are discussed: (1) uncontextualized CAL, requiring one-word answers; (2) contextualized forms of practice, for example those in which the learner has to unscramble or rebuild a text. The discussion section considers both some of the advantages of CAL for EFL vocabulary learning and some of the problems of using it effectively and integrating it successfully into a total teaching programme.
