| Body | Language Learning and Technology From http://llt.msu.edu/vol11num1/call.html Call for Papers for Special Issue of Language Learning and Technology Theme: Technology and Learning Grammar Advances in computer technology offer a range of new opportunities for language learners to gain awareness of grammatical structures and to develop L2 grammar proficiency. Since the inception of the internet, the amount of grammar exercises has been increasing steadily, in part due to useful authoring tools that have been developed over the past years. This special issue of Language Learning & Technology aims at providing a variety of perspectives in this area through research articles and theoretical discussions of technology-supported grammar instruction, language acquisition, and testing. Possible submissions include but are not limited to: * a comprehensive literature review of technology-based grammar instruction * a discussion of theoretical frameworks for aspects of technology-based grammar instruction * theoretical models of error diagnosis and error correction (e.g., NLP-based or nonparser-based approaches, student modeling techniques) * research on the link between computer-based activities that promote grammar skills and those that promote language acquisition * overviews of research on the role of technology in developing grammar proficiency * studies of the efficacy and/or utilization of corpora, concordancers, proofing tools and other grammar aids to support grammar acquisition and proficiency * studies of corrective feedback, learner control and error correction with respect to technology-based grammar instruction * comparisons of technology use (i.e., proofing tools) by native versus foreign language learners * studies of computer-based instruments for assessing various aspects of grammar proficiency * computer-based testing of grammar proficiency Deadline for submission of abstract: May 1, 2007.
