Sub-conference C6: Technology Enhanced Language Learning

Sub-conference C6:
Technology Enhanced Language Learning

In response to the global Chinese demand for research diversity, GCCCE 2017 on Technology Enhanced Language Learning (TELL) (C6) offers the opportunities for the exchange of state-of-the-arts research and development in the related field, creating favorable conditions for language learners, such as individual and well-targeted language skills practices, simultaneous correction feedback, society interaction etc. As more studies on exploration and application arise, language learners can focus more efforts on learning to further understand how language learning theory effectively unites with the cutting edge technology development. TELL contributes to the advancement of first, second and foreign language learning with the aid of Information and Communication Technology. The main objective of the sub-conference is to stimulate dialogues among TELL scholars and practitioners so as to gain insights into and synergy of the theories, pedagogies, technological design and evaluation of TELL environments for comprehending the trend and strategies of the new era as well as investigate the possibility of future cooperation direction.
