The Multimedia CALL Lessons were
authored in partial fulfillment of the graduate CALL course requirements at
Saint Michael's College, and most of them were contributed by prospective

course participants' capstone project and are centered around extensive lesson
plans which incorporate a variety of technologies. The purpose of each
lesson is to engage ESL/EFL students in activities that improve their skills by
