Abstract

In this study, we reviewed articles on technology-enhanced language learning and teaching. We aimed to summarize the content of reviewed articles in the following categories: (1) the number of articles published by journals and by year; (2) languages and skills; (3) technology used; (4) promising technologies. We reviewed 398 research articles. The highest number of articles was published in 2017 (n = 80), whereas the lowest number was published in 2014 (n = 53). The Computer Assisted Language Learning journal published the highest number of articles (n = 100), whereas the lowest number of published articles appeared in IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies (n = 3). The most common target language was English (n = 267). Writing, speaking, and vocabulary gained the most attention in published articles. Twenty-three different technologies were identified and they were used 406 times. Based on our results, we made several implications and suggestions for future studies. This review study can serve as a guide for teaching and research communities who plan on designing language learning and teaching activities supported by technologies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
