Abstract

The imperative need for understanding the role of CALL in SLA, as well as its effectiveness, is at the heart of discussions and conferences worldwide about CALL and SLA. The link between CALL and SLA has become closely correlated and more powerful. Therefore, it has become much easier for educators and specialists in the field of education and second language acquisition to notice the huge diversity of links between CALL and SLA. Thus, any discussion about the development of SLA approaches and methods without considering the effect and the integration of CALL would be incomplete. The purpose of this paper is to open such a discussion. The real driving objectives of this article are to delve into and analyze the role of CALL in SLA as well as its effectiveness and challenges, shed light on the historical background of CALL, and the common and recent theories dealing with the integration of CALL in SLA. This article also discusses the implications of integrating CALL in SLA and provides some recommendations.
