The case study in this paper illustrates that MET does benefit college English teaching but there are many problems of its application. Pedagogical implications are then provided to enhance the effective integration of MET and language teaching and learning： （1） it is wise for the teachers and learners to reconcile what is desirable with what is acceptable and possible in MET application; （2） teachers should optimize other existing resources to solve the problems caused by inequality and unavailability of MET; （3） teachers should have a clear conception of the relationship of MET and pedagogy to design and apply courseware appropriately; （4） students have beliefs in the benefits of MET, resulting in enhancing their individual language learning and efficiency.展开更多

文摘This paper investigates the current situation of Modern Educational Technology （MET） as program resources for college English teaching, exploring the effectiveness of the integration of MET and language teaching and learning. The case study in this paper illustrates that MET does benefit college English teaching but there are many problems of its application.
