Abstract :
Researchers have investigated the possibilities for supporting language learning through a range of technologies, most recently mobile phones and interactive television (iTV). Drawing on a focus group study, we present a scenario demonstrating an approach that blends the features of these two technologies. Three areas are identified for further exploration: pedagogy, technical feasibility and interaction design issues.
