ICT and Language Learning

Description:

"The book explores the interplay of ICT and language learning from the printing press to the mobile phone. It considers how technological advances (through their impact on communication, language education and language learning itself) affect not only how languages are learnt and taught, but also what kind of language is (or should be) learnt and taught. As well as identifying some recurrent themes and concerns, the approach highlights the multifaceted and complex nature of language study and its evolutionary dimension."--Jacket.
