IRCHSS Workshop
Thanks to funding received from the IRCHSS , and support from the European Association for Computer Assisted Language Learning (EUROCALL), an international workshop on research in Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) took place at the University of Limerick (UL) on 3 September 2003. The workshop was facilitated by Mike Levy ( Griffith University , Australia), Françoise Blin ( CTTS, DCU), Angela Chambers (UL), and Liam Murray (UL).
The aims of the workshop were, firstly, to provide prospective and established CALL researchers from Ireland and abroad with the opportunity to share their experience, and secondly to identify possible areas of research collaboration between senior and junior researchers on one hand, and between researchers from different institutions on the other.
During the workshop, participants had the opportunity to reflect on and to discuss issues related to CALL research, and in particular:
- process and outcomes in elaborating appropriate theoretical frameworks;
- formulation and assessment of critical research questions for CALL;
- identification and exploration of effective research methods for CALL, including new and innovative approaches to data collection and analysis.
