Li’s book is concise and accessible, and will attract a wide range of readership. It promises to be an essential reading for undergraduates and postgraduates studying language teacher training programmes, and more specifically MA TESOL degrees. It is also an excellent resource for academics pursuing a research-led teaching methodology. As such, it has already taken its place in the list of essential reading for my CALL module at Newcastle University.

H. Müge Satar, tesol Quarterly, Vol. 52 (1)

This research-led textbook investigates the use of new technologies for language learning, linking theory to practice. The book synthesises previous technology use (including Computer Assisted Language Learning) theory and research, and describes practical applications for both second and foreign language classrooms, including detailed examples of these applications and the procedures for evaluating them.
