Resumen
The studies reported in this edited volume elaborate upon some of the ways in which technological tools affect learners’ psychological experiences while learning or using a second language. In this chapter we offer an abbreviated summary of how technology influences language learners. We also look to the future and so we will briefly discuss three general research areas related to the interactions between technology and language learning. These three areas are as follows: 1. Technology’s influences on language learner psychology 2. Psychology’s influences on language learning via technology 3. Technology’s help in understanding language learner psychology Each of these areas is explained in some detail, which will be followed up by some directions for language teachers, who are still the primary facilitators of technologically based language learning activities.
