Will mobile learning change language learning?

Agnes Kukulska‐Hulme · 1 May 2009

Learners who are not dependent on access to fixed computers can engage in activities that relate more closely to their current surroundings, sometimes crossing the border…

Gaming as extramural English L2 learning and L2 proficiency among young learners

Liss Kerstin Sylvén, Pia Sundqvist · 1 Sep 2012

Abstract Today, playing digital games is an important part of many young people's everyday lives. Claims have been made that certain games, in particular massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) provide L2 English learners with a linguistically rich and cognitively challenging virtual environment that may be conducive to L2 learning, as learners get ample opportunities…

Mobile-assisted language learning: A Duolingo case study

Abstract The growing availability of mobile technologies has contributed to an increase in mobile-assisted language learning in which learners can autonomously study a second language (L2) anytime or anywhere (e.g. Kukulska-Hulme, Lee & Norris, 2017; Reinders & Benson, 2017). Research investigating the effectiveness of such study for L2 learning, however, has been limited, especially regarding…

Investigating learner preparedness for and usage patterns of mobile learning

Glenn Stockwell · 21 Aug 2008

Abstract While the use of mobile devices for language learning has sparked the interest of an increasing number of researchers in recent years (e.g., Aizawa & Kiernan, 2003; Thornton & Houser, 2005), our knowledge of learners' preferences for the mobile platform and their usage patterns remains limited. Are learners prepared to use mobile phones for…
