摘要：

Exploring language development through using synchronous (real-time) voice and chat technology will be the focus of this paper. Researchers interviewed students, teaching assistants, and teachers of an online English as Second Language program based in Taiwan, using grounded theory to begin generating a theory of language learning using this new technology. Students of all ages reported preferring the online environment because they were less fearful of speaking online due to the anonymity afforded by the technology. Engaging article content motivated learners to interact with teachers and, as they became comfortable to interact collaboratively with each other. The opportunity to speak English with native speakers enabled students to obtain the necessary fluency for business, school and travel.
