The implementation of technological tools in classroom settings
provides significant enhancements to the learning process. When
utilized properly, students can achieve better knowledge and
understanding. Multiculturalism and Technology-Enhanced Language
Learning is a critical source of research for the latest
perspectives on the intersection of cross-cultural studies and
technology in foreign language learning classrooms. Highlighting
pertinent topics across a range of relevant coverage, such as
mobile learning, game-based learning, and distance education, this
book is ideally designed for educators, researchers, academics,
linguists, and upper-level students interested in the latest
innovations for language education.
The ability to effectively communicate with individuals from
different linguistic and cultural backgrounds is an invaluable
asset. Learning a second language proves useful as students
navigate the culturally diverse world; however, studying a second
language can be difficult for learners who are not immersed in the
real and natural environment of the foreign language. Also, changes
in education and advancements in information and communication
technologies pose a number of challenges for implementing and
maintaining sound practices within technology-enhanced language
learning (TELL). Cross-Cultural Perspectives on Technology-Enhanced
Language Learning provides information on educational technologies
that enable language learners to have access to authentic and
useful language resources. Readers will explore themes such as
language pedagogy, how specific and universal cultural contexts
influence audio-visual media used in technology-enhanced language
learning (TELL), and the use of English video games to promote
foreign language learning. This book is a valuable resource for
academicians, education practitioners, advanced-level students, and
school administrators seeking to improve language learning through
technology-based resources.
