摘要:The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) on students' achievement levels and attitudes towards the lesson in the 6th grade students' English lesson. The research was carried out in 2009-2010 education-instruction year in an elementary school in Nigde, Turkey. Totally 40 students in two different classes in the 6th grade of this school participated in the study. The pre/post-test control group research model was used in this study. The data obtained in the study were analysed by the statistical software SPSS 15.0. The arithmetic means and standard deviations were calculated for each group. In order to test the significance between the groups, the t-test and Mann Whitney-U test were used. The significance level was taken as .05. The results of the research showed a significant difference between the attitude scores of the experimental group and the control group in favour of the experimental group. It was also found out that the CALL was more effective in the positive development of the students' achievement levels. At the end of the research, it was revealed that the students who were educated by CALL were more successful and had a higher motivation than the students who were educated by the traditional language instruction methods.
