CALL - Development of Language Learning with Computer

Hello everyone!
In this post, I would like to talk about  CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning).
CALL is an approach that combines computer technology with language learning and it gives chance to learners to benefit from useful activities provided by their instructor. It also provides teachers to assess their students and work with them interactively.
In the early 1930s and 1940s, large computers were used for missile guidance and it paved the way for using computers for language learning. Then, in the 1940s mechanical translations appeared. In the 1950s, simple CALL programs for drill and testing and at the next stage of the development of CALL Behavioristic CALL has been termed and some pioneer CALL progress existed. When microcomputers emerged in the 1980s, it had a huge effect on in this field. Lastly, the 1990s is the present stage of CALL.
