The prominence of technology has always been booming since computers generated new lanes for human to make use of high-tech for many different purposes. Utilizing computers for learning goals, among many, is one of the main concerns followed by educational issues in teaching and learning, especially, of a new language. Computer-assisted language learning (CALL) is known as a branch of language studies which focuses on teaching and learning of a new language through applications of computers in language learning contexts. Many books, articles, reviews, and etc. being published regularly consider one or some issues related to the CALL. To this, researchers have tried to introduce or evaluate particular application of CALL in the mentioned field. Cameron (1988, p. 15) reasons that “The fact that there are so many different types of CALL programs in existence illustrates the futility of attempting to define a single set of program principles or structures to fit all situations.” Other subordinate technologies interconnected to the computerized exemplar have arrived the inclined in practice. For example, information communication technology (ICT) “has been integrated within the overall design of the methodology used in the language learning process is a key factor.” (Zhang, 2012, p. 8). Other similar well-intentioned works can be referred to as (Holland & Fisher, 2008; Donaldson & Haggstrom, 2006; Thomas, Reinders, & Warschauer, 2013) which consider discussions of series of actions taken as regards the CALL subject. Beatty’s “teaching and research in computer-assisted language learning” (2010) is considered as one of the most comprehensive books on defining and reorganizing concept of CALL into the language education. The following is a review based on Beatty’s book which is also highly recommended as for reading by the reviewer.

教学与研究计算机辅助语言学习

自从计算机为人类利用高科技实现许多不同目的创造了新的途径以来，技术的重要性一直在蓬勃发展。在许多情况下，利用计算机来实现学习目标是紧随其后的主要问题之一，其次是教学和学习中的教育问题，尤其是新语言的学习。计算机辅助语言学习（CALL）是语言研究的一个分支，其重点是通过计算机在语言学习环境中的应用来教授和学习新语言。定期出版的许多书籍，文章，评论等都考虑了与CALL相关的一个或一些问题。为此，研究人员试图介绍或评估CALL在上述领域的特殊应用。Cameron（1988，p。15）的理由“存在许多不同类型的CALL程序这一事实说明了尝试定义一套程序原则或结构以适合所有情况是徒劳的。” 在实践中，其他与计算机模型相关的从属技术也已出现。例如，信息通信技术（ICT）“已被集成到语言学习过程中使用的方法的总体设计中，这是一个关键因素。” （Zhang，2012，第8页）。其他类似的善意作品也可以称为（Holland＆Fisher，2008； Donaldson＆Haggstrom，2006； Thomas，Reinders和Warschauer，2013），其中涉及对CALL主题采取的一系列行动的讨论。Beatty的“计算机辅助语言学习教学和研究”（2010年）被认为是最全面的书籍之一，有关将CALL的概念定义和重新组织到语言教育中。以下是根据Beatty的书进行的评论，同时也强烈建议阅读者阅读。
