Technology-Mediated Language Teaching

An essential tool for exploring how to maximise the use of technological resources in language teaching

This edited volume explores opportunities for integrating technology in the classroom and using digital tools including podcasts, gamification and artificial intelligence. It offers practical advice on planning, personalising and implementing technology-mediated language teaching in online, hybrid and in-person teaching contexts.

This volume offers a rich overview of current research and teaching strategies for the integration of technology into language teaching and learning. It introduces the Planning, Personalization and Implementation (PPI) methodological framework to support educators in engaging with the theoretical foundations and innovative practices that should guide the incorporation of technology into their teaching practices. While Spanish language teaching is used as an example, the recommendations can be applied to any language learning contexts. The thirteen chapters address a broad range of themes including accessibility, curriculum design, teacher attitudes, motivation, anxiety and feedback, and offer guidance on using digital tools such as podcasts, gamification and artificial intelligence. Written by an international group of scholars, this book serves as a roadmap for language professionals to effectively incorporate technology into any learning environment, whether face-to-face, hybrid or online.
