As illustrated by the existing research, CALT is valuable in that it can leverage technological affordances (e.g., multimodal resources or interactive spaces) in motivating students’ learning interest. However, beyond the technological level, CALT treats language (i.e., vocabulary and grammar) separately from content de/construction (e.g., questions-based content comprehension). This means that to further improve CALT in the EFL context, the students’ understanding of the relationship between language and content, which contributes to the success of literacy activities, must be fostered pedagogically. As such, this paper introduces systemic functional linguistics and argues for its use as a complementary tool for students’ improved engagement in CALT. It also offers recommended practices for teachers in this regard.}, number={15}, journal={International Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning (iJET)}, author={Zhang, Xiaodong}, year={2021}, month={Aug.}, pages={pp. 226–235} }
