Effectiveness of a dynamic usage based computer assisted language program
The current paper explores whether a Dynamic Usage Based (DUB) approach – which takes authentic meaningful
language use with repetition and scaffolding for comprehension as its basis – can also be implemented in a CALL environment. The
effectiveness of the DUB-CALL program was tested in a semester-long experiment, comparing it with a teacher-fronted DUB program
(using the same materials as the CALL program) and a traditional CLT program; 228 university undergraduates in Sri Lanka
participated. Language gains were assessed in a pre-post design with an objective General English Proficiency (GEP) test and a
writing task. The results show that the students in the DUB-CALL condition performed significantly better on the GEP test than the
students in the two teacher-fronted classes. The results of the writing tests show that all groups improved significantly, but
here there were no differences among groups.
期刊介绍:
The Dutch Journal of Applied Linguistics (DuJAL) focuses on promoting Dutch and Belgian work in applied linguistics among an international audience, but also welcomes contributions from other countries. It caters for both the academic society in the field and for language and communication experts working in other contexts, such as institutions involved in language policy, teacher training, curriculum development, assessment, and educational and communication consultancy. DuJAL is the digital continuation of Toegepaste Taalwetenschap in Artikelen, which had been the journal of Anéla, the Dutch Association of Applied Linguistics, for forty years. Like its predecessor, DuJAL wants to offer a platform to young researchers in applied linguistics, i.e. PhD candidates and MA students. In order to maintain a high standard all submissions are subjected to a ‘double blind’ review by at least one external reviewer and two of the editors. Contributions may be written in Dutch, English, German or French.
