The use of computer technology in experimental studies of second language acquisition: A survey of some techniques and some ongoing studies

Abstract

This paper first gives a brief characterization of the ways in which second-language acquisition researchers use the computer to elicit L2 production data or to record how L2 learners process L2 input.Eight tasks and/or techniques are described; most of them borrowed from the experimental toolbox of psychologists.The paper then describes the use of computer technology in some ongoing investigations in which the author participates.These investigations pertain to the acquisition of automaticity in L2 reading, writing, and listening, and to the use of electronic bilingual dictionaries.
