General Introduction of CALL

Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) as we know it is being a technology that can help language learning and language teacher. CALLS today are still being updated so that it can be used into the future, in order to be more effective for learners as well as teachers. CALL also helps a lot in research and practice because it is very practical and innovate, researchers CALL think, what is interesting about the CALL? Why it is said to improve the teaching process?

Of all questions, there answers and reasons why CALLinteresting to learn, and why CALL can improve the learning process, they are:

• Learning Efficiency, learners can learn the language efficiently and more quickly without much effort;

• Learning Effectiveness, learners can learn more and retain knowledge of the language and be able to learn more deeply than ever before;

• Access, learners can get the experience of interaction and materials that will be difficult to get it;

• Convenience, learners can feel comfortable learning with the same taste anywhere and anytime;

• Motivation, learners get motivated for learning more, comfortably and enjoy;

• Institutional efficiency, learners do not need more time to learn from the teacher and will get better with a cheaper cost.

CALL has an important role to facilitate a person, and is expected to be adequate CALL users in the field, and the technology CALL fully integrated into language teaching and CALL fully focus on the quality of language learners.

CALL emerged as a new field that facilitates things related to computer use, along with the spread of computers in the 1980s, CALL developed from PLATO system approach to instruction program by students with materials and exercises.
