ABSTRACT
The purpose of writing this paper is to describe the developments of smart phone technolog',
rtment that have taken place rapidly and its accompanying pedagogical applications in the process of
ogical learning English. Students of English department of Unesa Surabaya consiscts of young
:arlier generation who have had and implemented smart phones in learning English. Some recent
dents' studies and reviews have shown that smart phones are contributing significantly to the
lot of application of pedagogical process of learning English, and not merely examine the
e"tion development of smart phone technologt itself, Overall smart phone technologt has also been
instrumental in significant for some activities of human lde. A discussion of smart phone
L-od technologt has contributed significantly also widely lonwn in lhe research Computer Assisted

mts to Language Learning (CALL). Some researchers have released their latest report that smart
'isor's phones contribute positively and effectively at the same time as a support which can improve the

INTRODUCTION
In line with the computer technology development, the debate of whether new literacy is
z, 18,
really new seems to assume that the computer technology usage would be normalized in the
future (Bax, 2003; Bax & Field, 2000; Chambers & Bax, 2006). Nevertheless, one thing for sure
ation, is that it is still on the continuum towards the final stage of normalization of CALL. Warschauer
(1999) also claims that the use of computers will not be considered to be a special case but
iysis, rather as a primary component of language learning and language use. Kern (2006) implies the
,f =changing status of CALL, comparing two definitions of CALL from Levy (1997) and Egbert
lhe :
(2005):
CALL means the search for and study of applications of the cdmputer in language
3r "ls
teaching and learning (Levy, 1997,p.1)
ridge: CALL means learners learning language in any context with, through, and around
computer technologies. (Egbert, 2005, p. 4)
acher As can be seen in two definitions above, the noticeable changes are 'any context' and
'computer technologies' instead of 'computer'. Presumably, Egbert's definition would try to
embrace a broad range of contexts of using computer technologies in language learning.
Furthermore, even the meaning of the term 'computer' is not absolutely free of ambiguity but
comprehensive one. She uses 'cornputer technologies' because the definition of computer has
also been changing. Nowadays 'computer', in fact, seems to be too general to refer only to
desktop or laptop computers. Recent mobile electronic devices that hold the capacity for
language learning (e.g., 3G/4G smartphones, tablet PC) have been blurring the learning
boundaries between classroom and home, as well as boundaries between the concept of
computer and mobile devices. Also those new mobile computing technologies can presumably
change the way we have used computers (Egbert, Akasha, Huff, & Lee,20ll). In this sense,
such mobile devices can also be regarded as handheld 'computers' with versatile functionalities.

2003) and limited memory and data processing speed. To cover these inconveniences, the use of
Tablet PCs has recently been on the rise as the alternative (Godwin-Jones, 20 I l ).
Lan, Sung, and Chang (2007) conducted a comparative study to investigate the benefit of
the
using Tablet PCs in EFL context to irnprove peer collaboration in reading class, cotnpared to the
:og
traditional class setting. The results indicated the application of Tablet PC to facilitate the
collaboration between peers outrveighed the potential weakness hindering students'
collaboration process in a traditional setting. Moreover, the utilization of the rnobile-device-
supported peer-assisted learning could reduce EFL learners' anxiety and promote their
,gy
motivation and confldence.
to More recently, Chen (2013) also exarnined the applicability of using Tablet PC for
in, informal leaming of English out of classroom setting. As Godwin-Jones (201l) highlighted the
[or vast potentials of using apps by Tablet PCs, Chen's study wqll illustrated the multifunctional
of features of Tablet PCs including rnicro-message, rnicro-blog, electronic book reader, and so on.

For example, the participants were actively engaged in a collaborative learning environment by

sharing their feedback with each other via micro-blogs. The study also showed the positive

CONCLUSION
'is
The main goal in this paper has been to provide the review of recent research on MALL
;ed
applications in tenns of newly emerging or integrated mobile technologies. Rapidly developing
rat mobile device technology and widespread ownership of mobile device seem to have an impact
lce
on language education, as well as other contexts learning. ln conventional application of
CALL, most learning environments have been occurred on stationary PCs. However, now it is
he' transferred to mobile devices, which enable the language learning to be independent from any
itv location and time. Both PCs and mobile device application will eventually happen
by simultaneously. As can be seen above examples of MALL applications, multi-functional mobile
.e,
devices can contribrrte torvard a more compretrerrsive educatiohal environmertt for language
ed learners.
ng According tc the research findings reviewed above, it seems hard to confirm that MALL
he
has already been fully utilized in educational contexts. Nevertheless, one thing for sure is that it
is on the continuum towards the new stage of CALL through adopting a variety of emerging
ed
mobile technologies. The increasing ownership of mobile devices among teachers and srudents
;h,
might not be directly related to computer technology usage for the purpose of language
'or
education, however; it could imply the expanding nature of computer technology use in
he
educationalpurposes. Furthermore, the promising results from the research about the use of
lie mobile technologies forlanguage learning might be challenging to indicate the prevailing trends
qs of MALL in a definite way due to notonly the fact that the application of MALL highly relies
an
on the general consensus from language teachers andleayners, but also lack of pedagogical
framework of MALL. Therefore, the future research on MALL needs toexplore the teachers'
and learners' perspective on the use of MALL, in that it would be meaningful to find out'emic'
views on the issue from the users in educational context. All of those factors identified from the
I, languageteachers and learners can be viewed as their current obstacles to overcome toward the
es
successful integration ofnew MALL technologies. At the same time, those factors play a role of
)s
a series of indicators to see 'where weare' on the continuum to the new stage of MALL.
