Abstract:

The increased use of sophisticated mobile devices opens up new possibilities
and challenges for language teachers and learners, which has led to an
increasing need to consider issues relating to mobile technologies
specifically. To date, there is no comprehensive book-length treatment of
issues relating to mobile-assisted language learning (MALL). This book fills
that gap, providing a resource for present and future language teachers, and
for graduate students of applied linguistics and TESOL, to understand how
mobile devices can best be used for language teaching. It is founded on
existing research, practice and theory, and offers a balanced perspective,
based on the author's own experiences with mobile learning - considering the
limitations of such an approach, as well as the benefits. Written in a
practical and approachable tone, it provides a much-needed guide to MALL, and
its fascinating insights promote further debate within the field.
 



1. Introduction; 2. Fundamental considerations in MALL; 3. Shifting paradigms
in language learning and teaching; 4. Research considerations in MALL; 5.
Theory in MALL; 6. Physical, psycho-social and pedagogical issues; 7. The
learner in MALL; 8. Designing MALL environments; 9. Concepts, contexts, and
challenges in MALL; Index.
