摘要
The attitude of EFL learners towards CALL is one of the important elements that can be influential in implementing a CALL course. This study investigated the attitudes of three groups of young language learners towards CALL. In the control group, traditional classes were held while in the first experimental group computers were used for 15 minutes and in the second experimental group this lasted for 30 minutes. The results showed that generally young EFL learners had positive attitudes towards CALL but their attitudes were significantly different in the second experimental group. This shows that the duration of exposure to the computer-based activities can be an influential element in the EFL learners' attitudes.
