Envisioning the use of technology to teach pragmatics

Abstract

One common practice in today’s language education is the integration of technology to enhance the language teaching and learning process. In relation to communicative language teaching and the integration of technology in language education, this paper aims at examining existing studies focusing on the use of technology for pragmatic teaching. This review found the lack of research examining the possible positive correlation between technology utilization and pragmatic teaching and learning. The connection remains unexplored though not impossible; whereas future research on this issue, given the rapid advancement of the information and communication technology, is promising and will be challenging at the same time.
