Abstract

This study aimed to investigate how face-to-face cooperative learning and CALL are integrated when teaching through face-to-face Computer Assisted Cooperative Learning (CACL). Although CACL is not a new term and the integration of technology with face-to-face instruction has been discussed in previous literature, there is no clear evidence for a model that can be used as a guide in the process of integrating the two methods, namely face-to-face cooperative learning and CALL, in teaching through CACL. This study employed the qualitative research design, and semi-structured interviews and observation were carried out to investigate the process of integration in face-to-face CACL during teaching reading skills. The study used Neumeier (2005) model as a theoretical framework; however, the findings showed that this model needs to be adapted to suit teaching through face-to-face CACL. The main adaptation is in the first two parameters because face-to-face CACL is considered one mode. It is the leading mode, mainly because face-to-face cooperative learning and CALL are used simultaneously during teaching, making it difficult to count the time of each mode separately. The study concluded with a model for integration in face-to-face CACL, which can be adapted for teaching through synchronous or asynchronous CACL. Also, the paper provided implications for teachers and educators interested in the design and implementation of CACL.
