Language Learning & Technology (LLT) is a peer-reviewed, open access academic journal of Language Learning, Language Teaching and Language Technology published online by the National Foreign Language Resource Center (NFLRC) at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. It is currently sponsored and funded by the NFLRC as well as the Center for Language & Technology (CLT) at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa. The journal's focus is to provide both foreign and second language educators with research on problems related to technology and language education. LLT’s focus is not strictly restricted to technology but rather has a wide scope that encompasses all issues related to language learning and language teaching and seeks to see how those issues are affected or enhanced by the use of digital technology.[1]

Notability

edit

Rsearchers and educators rely on Language Learning & Technology to understand evolving trends and applications, ensuring a well-rounded, research-backed approach to language education in modern settings (Sari et al., 2024[4] ; Parmaxi et al., 2013[5]). LL&T has been recognized for advancing research on the integration of technology in language learning, which includes both the development of instructional material and the exploration of diverse technological applications such as Web 2.0 tools, virtual learning environments, and intelligent CALL systems (Parmaxi et al., 2013 [6]).

Language Learning & Technology (journal) was cited as one of the top 4 journals in the CALL (Computer Assisted Language Learning)field by Cambridge University (Mohsen et al., 2023 [7]).

Language Learning & Technology was also cited in the English Language Teaching (ELT) Research Journal for significant contributions to the mobile language learning applications in high profile publishing articles.
