Abstract

Technology affects our live in various ways (Ahmed, 2001:321). As language teachers, our goals are to encourage our students to participate in language talking and communicate with each other as well as with the native speakers (Ahmed: 2002). During this era we need to use the technology in our class for their advantages, but the environments surrounding us play an important role in using CALL effectively. Therefore are any factors that may assist us in our implementation of Computer assisted Language Learning into class such as students attitudes? And in the contrary are there any factors that may prohibited us from using CALL in language class such as our budget, university authorities towards the use of technology in the class, and the teacher attitudes along sides the CALL materials and others factors. This study will try to answer all these questions as well as investigate all the possibilities that might help in improving integration of CALL in the class. The study will provide some suggestion for further studies.
