6. Evolution of CALL
Warschauer

7. Normalisation in CALL
Bax
CALL will reach this state when computers (probably
very different in shape and size from their current
manifestations) are used every day by language
students and teachers as an integral part of every
lesson, like a pen or a book.

8. They will not be the centre of any lesson,
but they will play a part in almost all.
They will be completely integrated into
all other aspects of classroom life,
alongside coursebooks, teachers and
notepads.
They will go almost unnoticed.

9. Stages of normalisation in CALL
by Bax
1. Early Adopters. A few teachers and schools adopt the technology out of
curiosity.
2. Ignorance/scepticism. However, most people are sceptical, or ignorant of its
existence.
3. Try once. People try it out but reject it because of early problems. They can’t
see its value—it doesn’t appear to add anything of ‘relative advantage’(Rogers, 1995).
4. Try again. Someone tells them it really works. They try again. They see it does
in fact have relative advantage.
5. Fear/awe. More people start to use it, but still there is (a) fear, alternating
with (b) exaggerated expectations. “Panacea”
6. Normalising. Gradually it is seen as something normal.
7. Normalisation. The technology is so integrated into our lives that it becomes
invisible—‘normalised’.

10. Teachers and students will use them without
fear or inhibition, and equally without an
exaggerated respect for what they can do.

Hypertextuality
Interaction
