It begins with an overview of CALL, outlining its historical development from the 1950s to present day. Key periods and approaches of CALL are identified, including behavioristic, communicative, and integrative models. The document then explores how Web 2.0 technologies like blogs, wikis, and social networks can facilitate interactive, collaborative language learning aligned with modern theories of immersion and interaction. An example of using blogs for language learning is provided. The document concludes by noting CALL's role as a tool to support normalization and future approaches to fully adaptive computational language learning.
