Abstract:

While educators and educational psychologists debate the influence of media 
on learning, there can be little doubt that media is now an integral constituent 
of any educational context. In particular, computer and internet media, with 
their immense processing power and multimedia capabilities, can have 
significant bearing on learning processes and outcomes in today's learning 
environment. Such media, which are increasingly designed to be highly 
interactive and adaptable, can enable reflective, productive and 
communicative activities and have much potential for foreign language 
learning.

The book contains 16 papers which look at different forms of media and 
explore how these affect or can be used effectively in foreign language 
education. The first of three parts focuses on important theoretical and 
pedagogical issues in selecting and using media. In the second part, 
insightful empirical research findings are presented on the contributions of 
different forms of media in language teaching and learning, including their 
effect on learners' learning motivation. The third and concluding part of the 
book provides in-depth accounts of how media can be harnessed to drive 
innovative curricular practice as well as students' evaluations of these 
curricular projects.
