This book focuses on the investigation of the sustainability of
technology integration in the context of language programs and is
based on an 18-month longitudinal study of a blended EAP (English
for Academic Purposes) language program situated within a
university pathways course. The integration of technology into
language teaching and learning in academic English programs often
demands substantial investment in professional development,
curriculum change, and technological resources. Given the intense
effort required, sustainability of such efforts has gained
importance, focus, and urgency. Situated in the context of English
for Academic Purposes (EAP) programs, this book frames, and
investigates, the sustainability of technology integration through
a series of case studies of specific technologies: tablet devices,
a Learning Management System, and an interactive presentation app.
The authors explore sustainable integration of technology; the use
of argument-based approaches as a basis for research design; and
participant ethnography as a form of data collection. The book
concludes by looking at the implications of the research and
proposes that change management concepts be applied to better
introduce, implement, and most importantly, sustain change
involving educational technology integration. The content will be
of interest to scholars in TESOL and applied linguistics as well as
professional language educators who will benefit from insights into
sustaining technology integration in their programs.
