Slide 2: Let us begin with the proponent/s
It is difficult to pinpoint as it was a gradual development rather than a single
invention. CALL emerged from the convergence of computer technology and
language teaching methodologies. However, several key figures and
institutions played significant roles in its evolution like Mark Warschauer: the
early pioneers were the educators and researchers in the mid-20th century
who began experimenting with using computers for language teaching, we
also have the language teaching professionals who worked tirelessly to
adapt traditional language teaching methods to fit the digital age. So while
there is no single “father of CALL”, these individuals collectively contributed
to the growth and development of this field.
Slide 3: Description & Characteristics of CALL
Script: it is an approach to teaching and learning in which computers and
other resources such as the Internet are used. It offers:
• Interactive learning: we have looooots of Games, quizzes, and simulations
that I just showed earlier
• Personalized instruction: CALL can adapt to your pace and learning style.
• Access to diverse resources:
Slide 4: Strengths of CALL
Script: CALL has many advantages:
• Convenience: Learn anytime, anywhere. And that leads me to my second
point
• Affordability: Many CALL resources are free or low-cost.
Slide 5: Weaknesses of CALL
Image: A question mark emoji with the words “Weaknesses” above it.
Script: While CALL is great, it’s not perfect:
• Lack of human interaction: Sometimes, face-to-face interaction is
important.
• Technical issues: Internet problems or software glitches can be frustrating.
Conclusion: Lastly lets talk about it’s applicability today
Call is very important especially today because our world today is heavily
driven by technical
And young learners would be inclined to learn language because call
provides interactive and fun content. Kids would wanna learn because CALL
is fun
AS you can see CALL is the future of Language Learning. Because Learning a
language shouldn’t be boring, with CALL, you can learn while binge-
watching your favorite Shows or playing games.
